'''Hetland''' is a [[List of former municipalities of Norway|former municipality]] in [[Rogaland]] county, [[Norway]]. The municipality existed from 1838 until 1965 when it was dissolved. The municipality included the [[Stavanger Peninsula]] and the land surrounding both sides of the [[Gandsfjorden]], but not the area around the head of the fjord. It originally encompassed the land surrounding the city of [[Stavanger]] in the present-day municipalities of [[Randaberg]] and [[Stavanger]] (except the city of Stavanger) and part of the municipality of [[Sandnes]]. The main church for Hetland was [[Hetland Church]] (now named "Frue Church"). Upon its dissolution in 1965, the {{convert|92|km2|adj=on}} municipality had 24,173 residents.<ref name="snl">{{Cite web |last=Store norske leksikon |author-link=Store norske leksikon |title=Hetland |url=https://snl.no/Hetland |access-date=2016-03-15 |language=no}}</ref> |

|||
The [[prestegjeld|parish]] of Hetland was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see [[formannskapsdistrikt]] law). On 1 July 1922, the northwestern district of the municipality (population: 1,256) was separated to form the new municipality of [[Randaberg]]. This split left Hetland with 10,167 residents. The port city of [[Stavanger (city)|Stavanger]] was located along the Gandsfjorden, adjacent to Hetland and as the city expanded over the years, areas of Hetland were [[annexation|annexed]] to join the city. Such changes happened in 1867, 1879, 1906, 1923, and 1953. Also on 1 January 1912, a small area in [[Høyland]] municipality (population: 41) was transferred to Hetland.<ref name="Dag">{{Cite book |last=Jukvam |first=Dag |year=1999 |title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen |url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf |publisher=[[Statistics Norway|Statistisk sentralbyrå]] |language=no |isbn=9788253746845}}</ref> |

On 1 January 1965, there were many major municipal changes in Norway due to the work of the [[Schei Committee]]. On that date, Hetland municipality was dissolved and its lands were transferred to its neighbors. The parts of Hetland located east of the [[Gandsfjorden]], namely the districts of [[Riska]] and Dale (population: 2,077) were merged into a much larger [[Sandnes]] municipality. The rest of Hetland, located on the west side of the fjord (population: 20,861) was merged into the municipality of [[Stavanger]], greatly expanding its size.<ref name="Dag" /> |

'''Hetland''' is a former municipality in [[Rogaland]] county, Norway. |
|||
===Name=== |
|||
It was created as Hetland [[formannskapsdistrikt]] in 1837. On [[1 July]] [[1922]], [[Randaberg]] was separated from Hetland to create a municipality of its own. The split left Hetland with a population of 10,167. In addition, areas of Hetland were moved to [[Stavanger]] in 1867, 1879, 1906, 1923 and 1953. |
|||
The municipality (originally the [[prestegjeld|parish]]) is named after the old ''Hetland'' farm ({{langx|non|Hesliland}}) since the first [[Hetland Church]] was built there. The first element is {{wikt-lang|non|hesli}} which means "[[hazel tree]]". The last element is {{wikt-lang|non|land}} which means "land" or "district".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=u4pBAAAAIAAJ |title=Norske gaardnavne: Stavanger amt |date=1915 |publisher=W.

==Government== |

On [[1 January]] [[1965]], the districts of [[Riska]] and Dale with 2,077 inhabitants became a part of [[Sandnes]]. The rest of Hetland, with 20,861 inhabitants, was incorporated into Stavanger. |
|||
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for [[primary education]] (through 10th grade), outpatient [[Health care|health services]], [[old age|senior citizen]] services, [[unemployment]], [[Social work|social services]], [[zoning]], [[economic development]], and municipal [[road]]s. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a [[Municipal council (Norway)|municipal council]] of [[Direct election|directly elected]] representatives.

Hetland is a former municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The municipality existed from 1838 until 1965 when it was dissolved. The municipality included the Stavanger Peninsula and the land surrounding both sides of the Gandsfjorden, but not the area around the head of the fjord. It originally encompassed the land surrounding the city of Stavanger in the present-day municipalities of Randaberg and Stavanger (except the city of Stavanger) and part of the municipality of Sandnes. The main church for Hetland was Hetland Church (now named "Frue Church"). Upon its dissolution in 1965, the 92-square-kilometre (36 sq mi) municipality had 24,173 residents.[3]
History
[edit]The parish of Hetland was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). On 1 July 1922, the northwestern district of the municipality (population: 1,256) was separated to form the new municipality of Randaberg. This split left Hetland with 10,167 residents. The port city of Stavanger was located along the Gandsfjorden, adjacent to Hetland and as the city expanded over the years, areas of Hetland were annexed to join the city. Such changes happened in 1867, 1879, 1906, 1923, and 1953. Also on 1 January 1912, a small area in Høyland municipality (population: 41) was transferred to Hetland.[4]
On 1 January 1965, there were many major municipal changes in Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On that date, Hetland municipality was dissolved and its lands were transferred to its neighbors. The parts of Hetland located east of the Gandsfjorden, namely the districts of Riska and Dale (population: 2,077) were merged into a much larger Sandnes municipality. The rest of Hetland, located on the west side of the fjord (population: 20,861) was merged into the municipality of Stavanger, greatly expanding its size.[4]
Name
[edit]The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Hetland farm (Old Norse: Hesliland) since the first Hetland Church was built there. The first element is hesli which means "hazel tree". The last element is land which means "land" or "district".[5]
Government
[edit]While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[6]
