History
Anuradhapura, which was governed by pioneering the Governor in 1932 under the “santriboard”, became a municipality after the systematic development of the local government administration structure. As not fulfilled the government expectation to evacuate the residents of the sacred city to New Town and the development of the new city through the special commissioner~s administration established after dissolution Provincial Council, The full-fledged Anuradhapura Conservation Board was set up in 1961. In 1975, the Board of Conservation was dissolved and brought under the control of the Special Commissioner. In 1983, after 37 years of varying degrees of bureaucracy, the Anuradhapura Municipal Council was made up of 11 people~s representatives.
In 2002, after the administration of the urban Council, the Anuradhapura urban Council was made in to a Municipal Council. At present, the Anuradhapura Municipal Council, comprising 29 people~s representatives, works for the welfare of the community.

The Municipal Council of Anuradhapura provides facilities to local and foreign tourists with the vision of being a “satisfied community in a proud city”. The Municipal Council is implementing various projects to support the quality of life of the urban people by providing services including infrastructure development, health and solid waste management, maternal and child safety. The municipal council has the legal power and responsibility to raise revenue for the municipal fund through the implementation of assessment and trade revenues and new revenue generating projects.
The Municipal Council contributes to the public in many ways, from birth to death, and can be identified as the most closed and essential service provider to the public. Our council spends most of its self-generating income to provide services to develop access roads and by-roads, installation of street lamps, solid waste management, libraries, cemeteries, garden landscaping, constructing public toilets and maintenance.
