History

The municipality of Stadsbygd was established on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). In 1860, the northwestern district of Stadsbygd (population: 3,733) was separated to form a municipality the new municipality of Rissa. The split left Stadsbygd with a population of 1,828. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the Ingdalen district south of the Trondheimsfjord (population: 171) was merged into the municipality of Agdenes. The rest of Stadsbygd, north of the Trondheimsfjord, (population: 1,616) was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Rissa (population: 3,264) and the southern part of the municipality of Stjørna (population: 1,868).[3]

Government

All municipalities in Norway, including Stadsbygd, are responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elects a mayor.[4]
