[D. JOSÉ I / D. MARIA I]. FORAIS, AFORAMENTOS E REGULAÇÃO MUNICIPAL — Câmaras, Bens dos Concelhos e Reguengos. 1766–1822. - [D. JOSÉ I / D. MARIA I] FORAIS, AFORAMENTOS E REGULAÇÃO MUNICIPAL — Câmaras, Bens dos Concelhos e Reguengos . 1766–1822. 4 diplomas: 1 Carta de Lei / Alvará de Lei, 2 Editais, 1 Carta de Lei. A collection of four decrees concerning charters, the granting of leases of municipal property, and the regulation of municipal administration. The issue of leases—contracts by which the municipalities ceded the use of municipal property in exchange for a fee—was of enormous practical importance, as it involved the management of the patrimony of local communities and the rights of landlords over their lands. The chronological span of this collection is exceptionally broad, encompassing the period from the Josephine reform of 1766 to the liberal period of 1822. June 16 / August 19, 1766 (King Joseph I) — Reform of municipal administration: regulation of the leases of the Chambers and assets of the Councils; annulment of illegal leases; Registers of assets; Common lands; model of the Book of Revenue and Expenditure of the Chambers; fundamental decree of the Josephine municipal reform. 13 July 1785 (D. Maria I) — Edict ordering the judges and clerks of the courts with royal lands to levy all fines due, revoking the previous edict of January 21; reinforcement of the collection of royal rights. August 11, 1788 (Queen Maria I) — Edict from the Treasury Board of the Senate Chamber ordering all leaseholders with leasehold rights to the Senate to go to the New Licenses Office to pay the rents due up to 1787, under penalty of execution. 5 June 1822 (Constituent Courts) — Law ordering the execution of the Decree of the General, Extraordinary and Constituent Courts of June 3, 1822, which reduces by half the amount of the rations or uncertain quotas established by the charters granted to the various lands of the Kingdom in the early days of the Monarchy, according to the 25 articles of the Decree; diploma from the liberal period of reform of the charter charges. The collection documents the continuity of the problem of land grants and charter charges from the Josephine reforms to the liberal abolition. The 1822 decree is an example of particular historical interest, bearing witness to the transition from the Old Regime to the constitutional monarchy in the area of property and local administration. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
