Following the Putting People First, Action Programme for Local Government and the Local Government Reform Act 2014, County Mayo's former six Electoral Areas were re-structured as four Municipal Districts: West Mayo, Castlebar, Ballina and Claremorris. Municipal Districts for the new tier of local governance at sub-county level. The first election to the new Municipal Districts was in June 2014, where councillors were elected simultaneously in local electoral areas to both a Municipal Districts and County Council.
