The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM, Turkish: İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediyesi, IBB) is a the government agency in charge of the municipal affairs of the Istanbul Province. It is one of the 30 metropolitan municipalities in Turkey.
History[edit]
On March 8, 1984, the metropolitan municipality act was put into force and on March 23 the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality was established.[1] The administrative limits of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality were enlarged in July 2004 and extended to the whole Istanbul Province. Before, only 35% of the Istanbul Province was under the control of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. The IMM now concentrates the competences of public management.[2] Previously, the existence of various authorities created complexity.[3] Few responsibilities remain for the provincial government.[4][5] The Provincial Administration's duties are limited to the building and maintenance of schools, residences, government buildings, and roads, and the promotion of arts, culture, and nature conservation.[6]
Organization[edit]
The IMM is divided into 39 district municipalities, a lower level of government. Conflicting relationships with lower local governments may hinder the IMM, for instance for urban planning.[7]
Governance[edit]
The Municipal Council of Istanbul (Turkish: İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediye Meclisi) is the decision-making organ of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality.[8]
