Summary/Abstract: Legislative proposal of community of municipalities as qualified form of union of municipalities resulted in series of fundamental comments of regions. The variability of attitudes was underlined by absence of statement of Association of Regions. The article analyses the individual positions of regions focused on principles of regulation - constituent communities of municipalities, entry conditions, method of registering communities, use of the services of a shared official and issues of accountability for the prepared acts. In subsequent discussions, a substantial part of the comments was settled positively (keeping the register of the community of municipalities by regions), the regions backed down from their comments or changed them to a recommendation. Conditions for formation of a community were significantly reduced and the possibility of several entities in large administrative micro-regions was greatly liberalised. The fundamental method of processing is analysis and comparative analysis of the positions of regions and legislative proposal. When formulating conclusions, it is then a method of synthesizing partial knowledge. The final treatment is very short. It is focused on set up of communities and ensuring the joint exercise of administration through a shared official. The smaller scale of the proposed changes is due to the disunity of the players concerned and the difficulty of reaching consensus.
