The 1999 Victorian local elections were held on 20 March 1999 to elect a number of the councils of the 78 local government areas in Victoria, Australia.[1]

Until 2008, local elections in Victoria were conducted periodically, meaning a number councils were not up for election in 1999.[2]

The Victorian Greens had their first electoral victory, with David Risstrom elected in the City of Melbourne having won 9% of the primary vote in a proportional representation system.[3]
