It should bestressed, moreover, that municipalities in the Kingdom of Polandwere collective, i.e. included a number of villages; each village was a so-called gromada (cluster) – an auxiliary municipal local government unit that had its own local government bodies. As opposed to collective municipalities, single-village (individual) municipalities existed in the lands ruled by the other two partitioning powers.

Gromada Tursko Wielkie is a group consisting of several villages, constituted the lowest tier of local government, taking over the role previously played by gmina Tursko Wielkie; at a smaller scale. In communist Poland between 29 September 1954[1] and 31 December 1972,[2] this assembly was introduced. Gromada was the lowest (next to osiedle) administrative division of Poland.

The gromada continued to function in interwar Poland, as a subdivision of a gmina.

The gmina or municipality (frequently translated commune), plural: gminy, is the principal unit (lowest level) of territorial division in Poland. As of 2004 there were 2,478 gminas. The word gmina is derived from the German word Gemeinde, meaning "commune" or "community". Since 1972, when it replaced the smaller gromada, the gmina has been the basic unit of administrative division. - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Gminas_in_Poland

In 2002, a water and sewerage service contract was agreed between the City of Lutsk and Lutskvodokanal for the duration until 2006, creating an enterprise 100% owned by the municipality (territorial gromada). - http://www.oecd.org/environment/outreach/35192306.pdf - page 14
