Sørli is a former municipality in the old Nord-Trøndelag county in Norway. The 1,435-square-kilometre (554 sq mi) municipality existed from 1915 until its dissolution in 1964. The municipality encompassed the southern part of what is now the municipality of Lierne in Trøndelag county. The administrative centre of the municipality was the village of Mebygda where Sørli Church is located.[3]

History

The municipality of Sørli was established on 1 July 1915 when the old municipality of Lierne (Finnlierne) was split in two parts: Nordli (population: 863) in the north and Sørli (population: 739) in the south. The old municipality of Lierne had been created on 1 January 1874 when it was separated from the large municipality of Snåsa.

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the neighboring municipalities of Sørli (population: 898) and Nordli (population: 1,147) were reunited to once again form the municipality of Lierne.[4]

Government

All municipalities in Norway, including Sørli, 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.[5]

The municipal council (Herredsstyre) of Sørli was made up of representatives that were elected to four year terms. The party breakdown of the final municipal council was as follows:
