Effective Governance
#4 Effective Governance and Politics
Municipal governments are made up of a municipal council, one mayor and 6 councilors and a municipal administration team.
A community's elected municipal council makes decisions and passes bylaws and resolutions on behalf of the community.
Municipal administration manages the community's day-to-day programs and services. The administration carries out the municipal council's decisions and manages community functions.
