- Administrative/biographical history:
- The lower organs of the German occupation administration in the District of Galicia were the municipal and rural (communal/volost’) councils, reestablished in 1941 on the model of analogous administrative institutions that had existed in the Russian Empire. These bodies were headed by the burgomaster and starosta, who had administrative oversight of all subordinate officials, all appointed from among locals loyal to the Nazi invaders. Municipal administrations included the following departments (dezernate), with corresponding subdivisions: general department, departments of finance, state insurance and welfare, procurement and supply, healthcare, police, transportation, and education. Municipal administrations were technically bodies of local government, but in reality were completely subordinate to municipal and district commissariats. The practical activity of municipal administrations went mainly toward supplying the German military. In addition, the administrations were required to provide the German command with cartage, fuel, hay, etc. They were liquidated in 1944.
