History
Komarovsky was granted urban-type settlement status in 1994.[citation needed] However, the law on the administrative-territorial division of Orenburg Oblast, passed in July 2007 and currently in effect, no longer provides for such a status, making the settlement classified as rural.[6] Nevertheless, some of the more recent sources, such as, for example, the results of the 2010 Census, continue listing Komarovsky under the urban-type settlement designation.[2]
Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is incorporated as the closed administrative-territorial formation of Komarovsky—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[1] As a municipal division, the closed administrative-territorial formation of Komarovsky is incorporated as Komarovsky Urban Okrug.[3]
