The Yevpatoria City Municipality (Ukrainian: Євпаторійська міськрада, translit. Yevpatoriis'ka mis'krada) is one of the 25 regions of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, a territory recognized by almost all countries as part of Ukraine but occupied by Russia as the Republic of Crimea. The region is located on the western coast of Crimea on the Black Sea's shore. Its administrative center is the city of Yevpatoria. Population: 119,258 (2014 Census).[2]

Name

[edit]

The Yevpatoria City Municipality is also known by its two other native official names; in Russian as Evpatoriyskiy gorsovet (Евпаторийский горсовет), and in Crimean Tatar as Kezlev şeer şurası. Colloquially, the municipality is known as "the territory governed by the Yevpatoria City Council (Ukrainian: Євпаторійська міська рада).

History

[edit]

The Yevpatoria City Municipality was formed on February 11, 1963 when the territory of the Yevpatoria Raion was absorbed into the already existing Saky Raion. At that time, the Yevpatoria municipality was established with the city of Yevpatoria governing the territory. The municipality was reestablished on May 1, 1990.[citation needed]

[edit]

The Yevpatoria City Municipality's population was 117,565 as of the 2001 Ukrainian Census[3] and 123,505 as of April 1, 2013.[4]

Administrative and municipal status

[edit]

Within the framework of administrative divisions of Russia, Yevpatoria is, together with a number of urban and rural localities, incorporated separately as the town of republican significance of Yevpatoriya—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[6] As a municipal division, the town of republican significance of Yevpatoriya is incorporated as Yevpatoriya Urban Okrug.[7]

Within the framework of administrative divisions of Ukraine, Yevpatoria is incorporated as the town of republican significance of Yevpatoria.[8] Ukraine does not have municipal divisions.

Besides the city of Yevpatoria which serves as the region's administrative center, the Yevpatoria municipality also includes three urban-type settlements:

In July 2020, the Verkhovna Rada approved an administrative reform in Crimea

[edit]
See also: Administrative divisions of Crimea

In July 2020, Ukraine conducted an administrative reform throughout its de jure territory. This included Crimea, which was at the time occupied by Russia, and is still ongoing as of October 2023. Crimea was reorganized from 14 raions and 11 municipalities into 10 raions, with municipalities abolished altogether.

Yevpatoria Municipality was abolished, and its territories to become a part of Yevpatoria Raion, but this has not yet been implemented due to the ongoing Russian occupation.[9]
