| ==History==
| |
| The council started its functions with 7 members who were then district officers. Most of them were Europeans. The Vice-President was the administrative officer. The income of the municipality was about Rs. 15,000. The population and the area of the town in the year 1866 were about 28,000 and one square mile respectively. In the year 1871, the population of the town was 29,712; and there were 6,619 houses out of which 4,341 were attached. A dispensary was started for the first time in 1868 at the site of the Lady Goschen Hospital. Subsequently a series of legislations under the Madras Presidency resulted in the gradual empowerment of the local administration and facilitated many welfare activities.
| |
|
| |
| Following the re-organization of States, the ''Mysore Municipalities Act'' 1964 came into force as a uniform act throughout the state on 1 April 1965, replacing the ''Madras District Municipalities Act'' of 1920. The provisions of this act gave a new phase to the municipality and it became a city Municipality. Ample opportunities were made in the Act to raise the income and also to carry out some of the obligatory functions.
