He was one of the inaugural members of the Temuka Borough Council and was the Mayor of Temuka for 10 years.[1]
He represented the electorate from to 1911; and then the electorate from to 1914, when he retired. He was a member of the Executive Council (without portfolio) in 1912 in the Liberal Government.
After leaving Parliament Buxton remained politically active and was for many years a local organiser for the Liberal Party, and later he was the national organiser for its successor the United Party.[1]
