| 释义 |
}} A local service district (LSD) is a unit of local governance in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador found outside the boundaries of municipalities (towns or cities). Local service districts define geographic boundaries for the provision and financing (through local taxation) of limited services such as water supply, fire protection, street lighting, animal control, planning and development services, garbage disposal, in some cases sewerage, and cost-sharing with other areas.[1] LSDs cover only areas where residents petition to create one. If one is formed, an advisory committee of five to seven elected members administers the work of the local service district.[1] All proposals put forth by LSD committees must be approved by the Minister of Municipal Affairs. They are governed under the Local Service District Regulations under the Municipalities Act, 1999. The provincial government maintains an up to date list of local service districts.
