The Municipal Association of Victoria is the peak representative and lobbying body for Victoria's 78 councils.

Municipal Association of Victoria - The peak body for Victorian Local Government

A newspaper article about a local government lobby group in England provided the inspiration for the formation of the Municipal Association of Victoria in 1879.

In the 120 odd years since its formation, the MAV has focused its activities on representing, promoting and advancing the interests of Victorian local governments. Some campaigns have been constants - improved relations between local, State and Commonwealth Governments, better road funding, greater financial capacity. Others have verged on the obscure - the demand, in 1928, for scientific experiments to eradicate mosquitos "as large as canaries", or the council, in 1979, whose answer to insufficient funds for infrastructure development, was to buy a weekly Tattslotto ticket.

Throughout it all, lobbying, research, policy development, knowledge management, facilitation and service delivery have been the mainstays of the Association's activities.
