Rand West City Municipality (Tswana: Mmasepala wa Rand West City; Afrikaans: Rand West City Munisipaliteit; Xhosa: uMasipala wase Rand West City; Sotho: Masepala wa Rand West City) is a local municipality in the Gauteng province of South Africa.
The municipal council consists of 69 members elected by mixed-member proportional representation.
35 councillors are elected by first-past-the-post voting in 35 wards, while the remaining 34 are chosen from party lists so that the total number of party representatives is proportional to the number of votes received.
In the election of 1 November 2021 the African National Congress (ANC) lost their majority of seats on the council.
