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

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 ]

Administrative and municipal status

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]

2020 Ukrainian Administrative Reform

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]
