Clarendon is a geographic parish in Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada,[4] located in the interior to the north of Point Lepreau and southwest of CFB Gagetown.
For governance purposes, Clarendon is part of the Capital Region rural district,[5] which is a member of the Capital Region Regional Service Commission.[6]
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish comprised a single local service district (LSD), which was a member of Capital Region Service Commission (RSC11).[7]
The Census subdivision of the same name shares the parish's boundaries.[1]
Origin of name
The parish was named for Clarendon Settlement, which in turn was named in honour of the Earl of Clarendon, British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs at the time of it being laid out.[8]
History
Clarendon was erected in 1869 from Lepreau and Pennfield Parishes.[9]
The area was first laid out for settlement in 1856,[10] with the Clarendon Settlement being largest. Much of the parish was never surveyed for settlement, most of the surveyed lots were never granted, and many granted lots were later reconveyed to the Crown.[11]
In 1868 the Clarendon District was created as a polling district taking in the northern part of Lepreau and Pennfield Parishes.[12]
Boundaries
Clarendon Parish is bounded:[2][13][14]
- on the north by the Sunbury and Queens County lines;
- on the east by Queens County;
- on the south by a due west line from the southernmost corner of Queens County;
- and on the west by the prolongation of the eastern line of grants that cross Lake Utopia.
Local service district
The local service district of the parish of Clarendon comprised the entire parish.[15]
The LSD was established in 1975 to assess for fire protection;[16] recreational and sport facilities was added in 2008.[17]
In 2021, the LSD assessed for community & recreation services in addition to the basic LSD services of fire protection, police services, land use planning, emergency measures, and dog control.[18] The taxing authority is 507.00 Clarendon.
