Yongyang Subdistrict

Seat of the Lishui District government

Yongyang Subdistrict lies in the north-central part of Lishui District and is the seat of the district government. Yongyang Town was abolished and reconstituted as a subdistrict in July 2015. The district government's administrative divisions page gives its area as 130.31 sq km, with 29 residents' committees and 3 villagers' committees.

Overview

Yongyang Subdistrict lies in the north-central part of Lishui District and is the seat of the district Party committee and government. The subdistrict profile page records 32 communities and a resident population of 194,000, while the administrative divisions page lists 29 residents' committees and 3 villagers' committees. The two figures agree once the villagers' committees are counted as communities; the difference lies in wording alone.

Administrative history

In July 2015 the provincial government approved the abolition of Yongyang Town and the establishment of Yongyang Subdistrict over the same area, its office at 34 Qinhuai Road. The approval was issued on 15 July 2015; the district government's historical evolution page records only the month.

Two sets of figures for area and jurisdiction

  • Area: 130.31 sq km on the administrative divisions page; "130 sq km" on the subdistrict profile page, a rounded form.
  • Jurisdiction: 29 residents' committees and 3 villagers' committees on the administrative divisions page; "32 communities" in the profile page's combined wording.

Both describe the same set of units. The entry fields follow the itemised version; the rounded and combined forms are noted here rather than given fields of their own.

Points of doubt

  • The resident population of 194,000 appears only on the profile page, which carries no reference date.
  • The seat is reproduced as "Banqiao residents' committee" from the administrative divisions page; whether the full name is Banqiao Community Residents' Committee is not recorded in the sources used here.
