The council was formed 1 January 1997, when the former councils of Glenelg and Brighton were amalgamated by the State government. As a result, there are two council offices, one in the historic Glenelg Library on Colley Terrace and the other on Jetty Road Brighton.

Mayors

The council has had 3 mayors: Brian Nadilo, Ken Rollond and the current mayor is Stephen Patterson (elected November 2014).
