Liste des municipalités du New Hampshire
page de liste de Wikipédia
L'État américain du New Hampshire compte 234 municipalités, dont 221 towns et 13 cities[1].
Création et statut
modifierLes municipalités du New Hampshire peuvent avoir le statut de city ou de town. Cette distinction reposait autrefois sur les conditions de création de la municipalité, une city nécessitant l'approbation de la législature du New Hampshire. Depuis 1979, les municipalités peuvent changer de statut lors de l'approbation de leur charte municipale par les électeurs[2].
Les municipalités ne couvrent pas la totalité du territoire de l'État, quelques portions limitées du New Hampshire constituent des grants (8), purchases (6), townships (6) ou locations (4), qui ne sont pas considérées comme des municipalités[1].
Les cities et towns du New Hampshire peuvent choisir plusieurs modes de gouvernance :
- les town meetings (en), où l'ensemble de la population en âge de voter constitue le pouvoir législatif de la municipalité, tandis qu'un board of selectmen détient le pouvoir exécutif local ;
- lorsque la charte municipale prévoit un town manager, qui dispose du pouvoir exécutif, le board of selectmen devient le pouvoir législatif et le town meeting n'a plus qu'un rôle consultatif ;
- enfin, la gouvernance de type council-manager repose sur un town manager et un conseil municipal.
