Creating an Island

 

 

 

A privately owned island off the coast of Florida has been left to you by the eccentric owner who recently died. The island is large enough for several small communities to be developed. Create a name for your island. You want to start on the right foot by establishing a local government, a judicial system, law enforcement system, and other services typically provided by local and state governments. When setting up a local government, please limit your selection to those styles found in the United States, and avoid dictator, monarchy, or communist systems. For the Unit VII Project, describe the following points:

the type of local government you would establish (e.g., county, city);
the form of that government (e.g., township, municipal charter);
the management system (e.g., commission, mayor, council);
how leadership positions would be instated (e.g., appointment, election);
the type of law enforcement and judicial system (how judges are selected) you would put into place; and
other services typically provided for by local and state governments. Be sure to explain the role of bureaucracies in these services, including how taxes support these services and how those taxes will be collected.
