History


The municipality of Lensvik was established on 1 January 1905 when it was separated from the municipality of Rissa which originally spanned both sides of the Trondheimsfjorden. The separation left Lensvik municipality (population: 1,019) on the west side of the fjord and the remainder of Rissa on the east side of the fjord. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Lensvik (population: 1,136) was merged with the eastern part of Agdenes municipality (population: 858) and the Ingdalen district of the municipality of Stadsbygd to form a new, larger municipality called Agdenes.[3]


Government


All municipalities in Norway, including Lensvik, 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]
