From 1899 to 1920, meetings of the county council were held in the Grand Jury room of the old Wexford Courthouse on Commercial Quay. After the old courthouse burnt down in the Irish War of Independence, a new courthouse was established on the site of the old jail in Hill Street in 1930. The county council relocated to the site in Hill Street at the same time. After the condition of the properties in Hill Street proved inadequate, the county council moved to a modern County Hall in Carricklawn in September 2011 and a modern courthouse was opened on Belvedere Road in 2018. In 2014, the Local Government Reform Act 2014 dissolved the Enniscorthy Town Council, the Gorey Town Council, New Ross Town Council, and the Wexford Borough Council. Wexford County Council became the local authority for their areas of jurisdiction. Since 2018, for the purpose of elections the county is divided into six local electoral areas: Enniscorthy (6), Gorey (6), Kilmuckridge (4), New Ross (6), Rosslare (5) and Wexford (7). Since 2018, for the purpose of local exercising of the powers of the local authority, the county is divided into five municipal districts: Enniscorthy, Gorey — Kilmuckridge, New Ross, Rosslare, and the Borough District of Wexford. Each municipal district corresponds in area to the respectively named LEA, except for the Gorey — Kilmuckridge Municipal District, which corresponds to both the Gorey LEA and the Kilmuckridge LEA.
