A Samtgemeinde is a type of administrative division in Lower Saxony (and other German states) where several smaller municipalities pool their resources and administrative functions while retaining a degree of autonomy. The elected council of the Samtgemeinde handles tasks such as regional planning, waste management, fire protection, and other services that are more efficiently provided on a larger scale. Individual member municipalities retain responsibility for local matters like primary schools and local construction projects.
