After 1999, much of the area (excluding Roodepoort, which became part of the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality) became part of the newly formed West Rand District Municipality.
The West Rand District Municipality is one of the districts of Gauteng province of South Africa, that covers the West Rand area, with the exception of Roodepoort.

Although Roodepoort has traditionally been regarded as being part of the West Rand, it was not made part of the West Rand District Municipality, instead being integrated into the City of Johannesburg Metropolitam Municipality, following the post-apartheid reorganisation of local government in the late 1990s.
