The Metropolitan Washington Council of Gov-
ernments was formed in 1957 as an independent,
non-profit association of officials from eighteen lo-
cal governments surrounding Washington, DC;
members of the Maryland and Virginia legislatures;
and members of Congress. The Council functioned
as a voluntary instrument for inter-local coopera-
tion until its incorporation in 1965 as an intergov-
ernmental agency of its participating county and
municipal governments.
The Council develops regional responses to issues,
such as the environment, economic development,
population growth, housing, health, public safety,
human relations, and family concerns. It also is desig-
nated by the federal government as the regional plan-
ning organization for metropolitan Washington, DC.
Annually, the Board is selected by appointments
made by the participating local governments and by
caucuses of state legislative delegations from the re-
gion. The current board consists of 27 members—four
selected from the District of Columbia; three from
Fairfax County; two each from Montgomery and
Prince George's counties; one from each of the re-
maining local jurisdictions; and one member each
from the Maryland and Virginia General Assemblies.
The Council is supported by financial contribu-
tions from its participating local governments, federal
and state government contracts, and through dona-
tions from foundations and the private sector.
