Sandvollan bordered the Sparbu area of the municipality of Steinkjer and the Børgin fjord to the east, the municipality of Inderøy to the southwest, and the Trondheimsfjord to the north. Sandvollan was mostly an agrarian area, though it also functions as a suburb of the town of Steinkjer, located about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) away.[1]
There were two churches in the municipality of Sandvollan: the 12th-century Hustad Church and Heggstad Church from 1887. The older church was built for the chieftain of Hustad, Bård Standale, who was sheriff for Eystein Haraldsson around 1150. The newer church was built because the old one had become too small.
History
The municipality of Hustad was established on 1 January 1907 when the old municipality of Inderøy was divided into three municipalities: Røra (population: 866) in the southeast, Hustad (population: 732) in the north, and Inderøy (population: 2,976) in the west. In 1912, the name was changed to Sandvollan. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1962, the three neighboring municipalities of Røra (population: 1,003), Sandvollan (population: 750), and Inderøy (population: 3,194) to form a new, larger municipality of Inderøy.[2]
Government
All municipalities in Norway, including Sandvollan, 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.[3]
