The town of Middlesbrough had been incorporated as a municipal borough in 1853. [6] When elected county councils were established in 1889 it was considered large enough to provide its own county-level services, and so it was made a county borough, independent from the new North Riding County Council, whilst remaining part of the North Riding of Yorkshire for ceremonial purposes.
Middlesbrough Council became a unitary authority in 1996. The borough is part of the Tees Valley Combined Authority, along with the boroughs of Stockton-on-Tees, Redcar and Cleveland, Hartlepool and Darlington. There are two parish councils in the area of the borough of Middlesbrough, Nunthorpe and Stainton and Thornton respectively.
The proposed council assets for transfer to the MDC include: [7] Middlehaven – including brownfield sites, Middlesbrough Dock, and surrounding land of around 40 acres; Middlesbrough bus station; The Crown (former pub) and neighbouring units (Linthorpe Road) Broadcasting House Enterprise Centre and freehold of Sainsbury's site (Wilson Street)
