Governments and businesses are interrelated. We hear executives of both large multinational corporations and small businesses explain how overregulation affects their industries. We also hear from groups such as labor unions, NGOs and regional organizations discuss the impact of governmental decisions on their respective programs, issues and stakeholders. No matter what, government has, does and will always influence our businesses and organizations. We all have our own thoughts about the role of government at the federal, state and local levels. Although many of us become excited when we head to the polls to vote for president or governor, we often fail to realize the direct impact our local government has on lives. So why is local government (i.e., city, county, township and parish) important to you and me? Because your voice directly impacts local issues and policy. Location, Location, Location
Local government should be important to each of us because it takes care of our local issues. The federal and state governments don’t necessarily have the time or capacity to listen to the complaints of the residents of a small town or city that has failing road conditions or sewer systems or any other neighborhood-related problem.
