Time is a municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. It is located in the traditional district of Jæren. The administrative centre of the municipality is the town of Bryne. Some villages in the municipality include Kvernaland, Lyefjell, Mossige, and Undheim. Most of Time is fairly flat and it is used for agriculture. The eastern portion of the municipality is more rugged moorland.<ref name="snl">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

General informationEdit
The parish of "Thime" was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The municipal borders have been slightly changed twice since that time. On 1 January 1970, a small unpopulated area was moved from Time to Gjesdal municipality. Then again on 1 January 1989 another unpopulated area was transferred to Gjesdal.<ref name="Dag">Template:Cite book</ref> Both times it was to make more room for the growing village of Ålgård.
NameEdit
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Time farm (Template:Langx) since the first Time Church was built there. The meaning of the first element is uncertain. It may come from the Anglo-Saxon word {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} which means "to get wet" or the Old Norse word Template:Wikt-lang which means "thawed" or "melted". Both possible meanings likely refer to the wet and marshy areas in Time. The last element is Template:Wikt-lang which means "meadow" or "pasture". Historically, the municipality name was spelled Thime, but the "h" was dropped as the Norwegian language was reformed over time.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
Coat of armsEdit
The coat of arms was granted on 23 December 1977. The blazon is "Gules, a lapwing rising argent" (Template:Langx). This means the arms have a red field (background) and the charge is a northern lapwing (Vanellus vanellus). The charge has a tincture of argent which means it is commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. This bird (known as a {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} in Norwegian) was chosen as a symbol for the municipality as it is a typical bird for the area. It is shown with wings upwards to symbolize optimism. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
ChurchesEdit
The Church of Norway has three parishes ({{#invoke:Lang|lang}}) within the municipality of Time. It is part of the Jæren prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Stavanger.

GeographyEdit
Time is located in the district of Jæren which is mostly flat and agricultural. The river Figgjoelva marks the northern border of Time with the municipality of Sandnes. The large lake Frøylandsvatnet forms part of the border with the neighboring municipality of Klepp. The landlocked municipality also includes part of the "Høg-Jæren" ("high-Jæren") area which is not flat like the rest of the district. Høg-Jæren is more hilly, rugged, and less densely populated.<ref name="snl" />
GovernmentEdit
Time Municipality is responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, welfare and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads and utilities. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor is indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.<ref name="ks">Template:Cite encyclopedia</ref> The municipality is under the jurisdiction of the Sør-Rogaland District Court and the Gulating Court of Appeal.
