Question

the structure of local government
each state in the u.s. has a state constitution that outlines
the powers given to local governments, which mostly have
to do with safety, infrastructure, and waste management.

their own taxes necessary to fund services, in addition
to state and federal taxes

• essential services: police and fire departments, water

and sewage systems, trash pickup, and other basic
services necessary for modern society are all provided
by local government.
local governments control many of the things that impact
the daily lives of their residents, but also allow for high
amounts of direct, democratic input from citizens.

many community decisions
