Samenvoeging van de gemeenten Heerhugowaard en Langedijk

This Dutch legislative procedure concerns the proposed merger of the municipalities of Heerhugowaard and Langedijk, both located in the province of North Holland. Municipal mergers in the Netherlands are formalised through legislation passed by the national parliament, which sets out the new municipal boundaries and arrangements. The procedure is based on metadata only and does not reflect the full text of the bill. Residents of both municipalities would be affected, as the merger would change local administration, the municipal authority responsible for local services, and the boundaries of the combined area. Details on timing, governance and service arrangements would be found in the full legislative text.
