On 7 February 1993, Croatia held its first local elections since it had declared independence from Yugoslavia. This was the time elections were held under the new law which abolished previous municipal categories Socio-Political Council, Council of Municipalities, Council of Associated Labor and introduced counties instead.
Electoral system Regional and local self-government elections were conducted so that half of the members of each county, city or municipal councils were elected through joint lists and the other half through individual constituencies. The electoral threshold was set at 5%. In constituencies where two or more candidates received the same number of votes the election was repeated. For each municipal council 16 councilors were elected, for each city council 26 councilors, and for each county assembly 40 councilors. The only exception was the City Assembly of Zagreb with 60 members. City and municipality mayors as well as county prefects are elected by the city, municipality and county council.
