Departmental government of Haute-Corse, France
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Departmental Council of Haute-Corse (French: Conseil départemental de la Haute-Corse, Corsican: Cunsigliu dipartimentale di u Cismonte) was the deliberative assembly of the French department of Haute-Corse, a decentralized territorial collectivity from 1976 to 2017. Its headquarters were in Bastia.[1] Following the territorial reform of 2015, the two departmental councils of Corsica (Haute-Corse and Corse-du-Sud) merged on January 1, 2018 with the Territorial Collectivity of Corsica, which already exercised the powers of a region with special status, to form the Collectivity of Corsica.[2]
