== Government and politics == === Government === {{see also|City of regional significance (Ukraine)|Dnipro#Politics}} The City of Dnipro is governed by the [[Dnipro City Council]]. It is a city municipality that is designated as a separate district within its oblast. Administratively, the city is divided into [[Urban districts of Ukraine|urban districts]]. Presently, there are 8 of them. [[Aviatorske]], a rural settlement located near the [[Dnipro International Airport]], is also a part of [[Dnipro urban hromada]]. The City Council Assembly makes up the administration's legislative branch, thus effectively making it a city 'parliament' or rada. The municipal council is made up of 12 elected members, who are each elected to represent a certain district of the city for a four-year term. The council has 29 standing commissions which play an important role in the oversight of the city and its merchants. Until 18 July 2020, Dnipro was incorporated as a [[city of regional significance (Ukraine)|city of oblast significance]], the centre of Dnipro Municipality and extraterritorial administrative centre of [[Dnipro Raion]]. The municipality was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven. The area of Dnipro Municipality was merged into Dnipro Raion.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Про утворення та ліквідацію районів.
