The Council is responsible for providing a variety of local public services including roads, sanitation, drains, housing, libraries, public parks and recreational facilities. It has 48 members elected under the mixed electoral system where 60% of members will be elected using first-past-the-post voting and the remaining 40% through closed list proportional representation.[1][2] HistoryThe area covered by the present Dehiwala-Mount Lavinia Municipal Council was part of the Kingdom of Kotte. It comprised a number of villages, including Pepiliyana Nedimala, Attidiya and Kalubowila. The areas south of Dehiwala together with Ratmalana were one large expanse of marshland that was sparsely populated. In the late 16th century the Kingdom of Kotte was ruled by the Portuguese controlled king, Dharmapala. The administrative structure of the area during this time was the Gansabha system as prevailed earlier. In the early 17th century, the Dutch brought a more organised administrative structure from which a broad based taxation and legal system evolved. In the 19th Century the British replaced this with a provincial administrative (Kachcheri) system, which led to the current form of local government developing. In 1937 Dehiwela-Mount Lavinia was a local body of six wards extending over {{convert|16.3|km2|abbr=on}}. In 1959 this area was extended and divided into nineteen wards and given municipal status because of its rapid urban growth and for administrative reasons. In 1967 the municipal area of approximately {{convert|2,109|ha|abbr=on}} was apportioned into 29 wards, as it exists today.[3] DemographicsDehiwala-Mount Lavinia Municipality area is a multi-religious, multi-ethnic, multi-cultural city.
