Staðarhreppur (previously Reynistaðarhreppur) was a hreppur, an old Icelandic municipality, to the west of the Héraðsvötn in Skagafjörður, Iceland, named after the church site Reynistaður.[1]
On June 6, 1998, Staðarhreppur joined ten other local governments to form Skagafjörður County: Skefilsstaðahreppur, Sauðárkrókur, Skarðshreppur, Seyluhreppur, Lýtingsstaðahreppur, Ríphreppur, Viðvíkurhreppur, Hólahreppur, Hofshreppur, and Fljótahreppur.[2]
The last Staðarhreppur council was elected in the committee election on May 28, 1994, in which Bjarni Jónsson, Helgi Jóhann Sigurðsson, Ingibjörg Hafstað, Sigmar Jóhannsson and Sigurður Baldursson were voted into office.[3]
