From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Skarðshreppur was a hreppur, an old Icelandic municipality, in the west of Skagafjörður county, Iceland, named for the Skarð farm in Gönguskörð, located at the base of Tindastóll Mountain.[1]
Skarðshreppur and Sauðárkrókur were created in 1907 when Sauðárhreppur was divided in two.[2]
Skarðshreppur had three districts:[2]
On June 6, 1998, Skarðshreppur joined ten other local governments to form Skagafjörður: Skefilsstaðahreppur, Sauðárkrókur, Rípurhreppur, Staðarhreppur, Seyluhreppur, Lýtingsstaðahreppur, Viðvíkurhreppur, Hólahreppur, Hofshreppur, and Fljótahreppur.[3]
The last Skarðshreppur council was elected in the hreppur committee election on May 28, 1994, in which Andrés Helgason, Jón Eiríksson, Sigrún Aadnegaard, Sigurður Guðjónsson, and Úlfar Sveinsson were voted into office.[4]
