I\'m not familiar enough with Perú to explain the functions, but it is probably one of a number municipal governments making up Callao which is the port city next to Lima.

Explanation:
El "Concejo distrital" en Perú es la "Municipalidad".

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 2003-07-11 16:35:48 (GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

Bellavista es un distrito, y cada distrito tiene su \"Concejo Distrital\" o \"Municipalidad Distrital\". \"Concejo\" viene de \"Concejal\", es un directorio de funcionarios electos que supervisan al alcalde distrital.

En Perú, el orden es: Distrital, Provincial, Departamental, Regional y Nacional. Hay municipalidades distritales y provinciales.
