Administrative division in Kosovo

Amunicipality (Albanian:komuna;Serbian:општина,romanized: opština) is the basicadministrative division inKosovo and constitutes the only level of power in local governance.^[1] There are 38 municipalities in Kosovo; 30 of which have anAlbanian ethnic majority, 7Serb and1 Turkish. After the2013 Brussels Agreement, signed by the governments ofKosovo andSerbia, an agreement was made to create aCommunity of Serb Municipalities, which would operate within Kosovo's legal framework. Since 2013, the agreement has not been fulfilled by Kosovo's authorities, calling upon itsconstitution and territorial integrity.

Community of Serb Municipalities

[edit]

Municipalities with Serb majorities have additional powers over the appointment of local police commanders, religious and cultural heritage sites within their boundaries; some of them have competences over universities and secondary health which in non-Serb-majority municipalities are a matter for central government (and, through the right of association of municipalities, even those Serb-majority municipalities which are not specifically given these powers may exercise them in association with those that do).

The2013 Brussels Agreement signed by theGovernment of Kosovo and theGovernment of Serbia contains provisions for the formation of aCommunity of Serb Municipalities^[15] (Serbian:Заједница српских општина /Zajednica srpskih opština;Albanian:Asociacioni i komunave serbe) It was expected to be created in 2015, but its formation has been postponed over conflicts about extent of powers.

Former municipalities

[edit]

Between 1990 and 2000, in theAutonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija, there were the followingadditional municipalities:

Gora
Opolje (1990–1992, later part ofPrizren)

In 2000 both were merged into the new municipality ofDragash. The number of municipalities remained at 30 until 2005, when the new municipality ofMalisheva was formed, by taking territories from the municipalities ofRahovec (District of Gjakova),Suhareka (District of Prizren),Klina (District of Peja) andDrenas (District of Pristina).

Notes
