the local government authority
The local government organization that runs a town, city, or area and makes decisions for it.
사용 패턴：
the municipality [verb] [something]; complain to the municipality
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse the area (the municipality) with the people who govern it. When the word is the subject that makes decisions or provides services, it usually refers to the government body, not just the place. In some varieties of English, learners also wonder about singular vs. plural verbs; "the municipality is" is standard, even though it represents many people.
