District law; enactment of statutes and ordinances
Brief description
The administrative districts have two options for legislative action: They can issue statutes and ordinances. Both of these are regulations that establish binding legal consequences for everyone, in particular rights and obligations.
Description
The administrative districts can issue statutes to regulate their own affairs. For example, they can regulate the use of their property and public facilities by means of bylaws or, for reasons of public welfare, impose compulsory connection and use of their facilities. Examples of this are bylaws in the area of waste management.
Bylaws regulating delegated matters as well as bylaws that threaten violations of their provisions with a fine (= reinforced bylaws) are only permitted in the cases specified by law.
The procedure for enacting bylaws is regulated in the County Code for the Free State of Bavaria.
In addition, districts can also issue ordinances if this is provided for by law. General regulations on the procedure for issuing municipal ordinances can be found in the Landesstraf- und Verordnungsgesetz (LStVG). The LStVG and other laws also contain authorizations for the issuing of ordinances by the district in the area of public safety and order.
