We are one of three local authorities that succeeded the former Dublin County Council on its abolition in 1994 and our responsibilities include housing, community, roads and transportation urban planning and development, amenities, culture and environment in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown county. Our county administration is headed by Frank Curran, Chief Executive, and has offices at Dún Laoghaire and Dundrum. Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council has 40 elected members.

The vision for Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown is to embrace inclusiveness, champion quality of life through healthy placemaking, grow and attract a diverse innovative economy and deliver this in a manner that enhances our environment for future generations. The Council of the electoral County of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown was established in 1985 with 28 members. Its members also sat as members of Dublin County Council and members from three electoral areas were also the members of Dún Laoghaire Corporation.

On 1 January 1994, under the Local Government (Dublin) Act 1993, County Dublin and the Borough of Dún Laoghaire ceased to exist with the new county of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown succeeding in the area of the electoral county. Dublin County Council and Dún Laoghaire Corporation also ceased to exist and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council came into being. On its formation, the Town Hall in Dún Laoghaire became the headquarters of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council.
