An election to Dublin City Council took place on 20 June 1985 as part of that year's Irish local elections. 52 councillors were elected from twelve local electoral areas (LEAs) for a five-year term of office on the electoral system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV). This term was extended for a further year, to 1991.[1]
