Sažetak
The local self-government system in Croatia is organized at two levels, so that the administrative-territorial division includes municipalities (428) and cities (127) at the first level and counties (20) at the second, regional level. Croatian municipalities are small on average (2, 957 inhabitants), although there are exceptions. In addition to the capital City of Zagreb, in the group of 17 big cities with more than 35, 000 inhabitants, there are three cities (Split, Rijeka, and Osijek) with more than 100, 000 inhabitants and that serve as regional centers. Counties, cities and municipalities are self-government units with their own scope of affairs, supplemented with delegated state administration functions (predominantly the capital city of Zagreb, counties, big cities). During the lockdown in the spring of 2020, the Croatian Civil Protection Headquarters made a decision to ban the movement of citizens between different local units. Crossing the borders of local units was possible only on the basis of obtaining passes by the Headquarters. Since most citizens live in small local units, they have been denied basic public services. Therefore, in addition to the analysis of the problems faced by the citizens, the paper presents short-term solutions for a possible re-lockdown, but also a desirable reorganization of local self-government as a long-term solution.
