Mannar Urban Council (Tamil: மன்னார் நகர சபை Maṉṉār Nakara Capai; MUC) is the local authority for the town of Mannar in north-western Sri Lanka. MUC is responsible for providing a variety of local public services including roads, sanitation, drains, housing, libraries, public parks and recreational facilities. It has 7 members elected using the open list proportional representation system.

History

Mannar Urban Council was created with effect from 15 April 2006 from parts of Mannar Divisional Council.[1] However, according to the pro-LTTE TamilNet, the Sri Lankan government had suspended all local government in the north and east of the country in 1983 using emergency regulations.[2] The civil war prevented elections from being held for MUC until 2011..

On 27 January 2006 local authority elections were called for the entire country.[3][4] It was later announced that elections would be held on 30 March 2006 across the entire country.[5] The Election Commissioner subsequently postponed the elections in the north and Batticaloa District until 30 September 2006.[6] On 23 September 2006 elections in the north and Batticaloa District were postponed until 30 June 2007.[7][8]

MUC continued to be administered by special commissioners until the 2011 elections.
