Spanish term or phrase: administración local colectiva territorial
It is the "colectiva" bit that's giving me the headaches...

"El municipio de XXX es una administración local colectiva territorial dotada de dos órganos representativos, la Asamblea Municipal y la Cámara Municipal, que trabajan en pro de los intereses de los ciudadanos en general."

Thanks!

agree  Fernando Romero: I like COMMUNAL. but I feel that "LOCAL or TERRITORIAL" is not necessary Use one of them only. LOCAL COMMUNAL ADMINISTRATION

  -> Yes, there's a caveat there. "Communal Territory" in conventions on ethnic minorities refer to tribal lands owned in common and may refer to public lands in other contexts.

Explanation:
If "COLECTIVA" is the dificult part, I would rewordv PARROT's answer, I like COMMUNAL. but I feel that is not necessary to use both "LOCAL and TERRITORIAL". I'd use only one of them
