Sør-Trøndelag County Municipality (Norwegian: Sør-Trøndelag fylkeskommune) was the regional governing administration of the old Sør-Trøndelag county in Norway until 1 January 2018 when it merged with Nord-Trøndelag county to form the new Trøndelag county.
County government
[edit]The county municipality's most important tasks include secondary education, recreation (sports and outdoor life), and cultural heritage. The county municipality is also responsible for all county roads (including ferry operations) and public transport (including school busses). The county municipality has further responsibility for regional land-use planning, business development, power production, and environmental management. The county also has responsibility for providing dental health services (in 2002, responsibility for hospitals and public medicine was transferred from the counties to the new regional health authorities).[1]
County mayor
[edit]Since 1963, the county mayor (Norwegian: fylkesordfører) of Sør-Trøndelag county has been the political leader of the county and the chairperson of the county council. Prior to 1963, the County governor led the council which was made up of all of the mayors of the rural municipalities within the county.[2]
Here is a list of people who have held this position:
- 1963–1963: Einar Moxnes (Sp)
- 1964–1967: Ole Kjønsvik (Ap)
- 1968–1971: Alf Nebb (Sp)

County council
[edit]The county council (Norwegian: Fylkestinget) is made up of 37 representatives that are elected by direct election by all legal residents of the county every fourth year. The council is the legislative body for the county. The county council typically meets about six times a year. Council members are divided into standing committees and an executive committee (fylkesutvalg), which meet considerably more often. Both the council and executive committee (with at least 5 members) are led by the county mayor (Norwegian: fylkesordfører). The executive committee carries out the executive funitons of the county under the direction of the whole council. The tables below show the current and historical composition of the council by political party.[1][3]
