History


The municipality of Sunnylven was established on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). According to the 1835 census, Sunnylven had a population of 1,476.[3] During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1965, the two neighboring municipalities of Sunnylven (population: 1,221) and Stranda (population: 3,453) were merged into one large Stranda Municipality.[4]


Government


All municipalities in Norway, including Sunnylven, 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]
