Have done by 2/28/2021 Write a four paragraph essay describing how you would make a difference as mayor. Write about a service/project you would provide to your county if you were mayor. Make sure to include how this project will be funded and how the leaders of the project will be chosen. By describing leadership for your project you must also mention how your government is organized (commission only, commission/administrator/manager, or commission and executive) and why this is the best system for your county. Lastly, explain how home rule helps make your city a great place to live. In a county, laws are made by the local government. Home rule allows cities to make laws for services without needing the state's approval. For example, if your city leaders believe one-way streets help
with traffic flow downtown, they will adopt laws to make their streets one way downtown. Another city might not have the same belief, and that is just fine. It is a local decision being made locally.
