Local Service District (New Brunswick)
A local service district (LSD) is a provincial administrative unit for the provision of local services in the Canadian province of New Brunswick. LSDs relate to areas of the province's former county municipalities that were not incorporated as municipalities around centres of population. They are defined in law by the ''Local Service Districts Regulation'' of the ''Municipalities Act''. In 2017, the ''Municipalities Act'' was replaced by the ''Local Governance Act'', which continued the ''Local Service Districts Regulation''. LSDs are operated by provincial staff. Residents have the opportunity to serve in an advisory capacity to provincial staff. As management units collectively referred to as unincorporated areas, application of the LSD concept has evolved to fit changes in communities over time, and they define their communities to varying degrees. For example, sub-units of the LSD make it possible to have separate taxing units within a LSD where one area may have grown to ha ...
