Week 11 / Week of March 29
Local government structure and leadership. Chapter 11. Powers of states and localities. Common concerns and regional efforts. Blog #15. Catch up with Blog #14 as needed... as of this posting, you all need to do that!
· Blog entry #15a: Read and reflect on Chapter 11, Local Government Structure and Leadership. Describe the community in which your CP operates… is it a city, a town, a rural area? What kind of mayor does the community have (describe with reference to the structures outlined in your textbook)? Does that form of mayor seem appropriate for the community? Why or why not (again, be specific when referencing the structures outlined in your textbook and how they might be appropriate or inappropriate for various communities with different needs)? Does your CP have any interaction with local government officials?
· Blog entry #15b: Watch Before the Flood. How are states and/or localities depicted in the film in terms of their ability to respond to the forces of climate change? Spend 30-60 minutes also researching online how the state and county in which you live are taking measures to address climate change at the state and local levels. Are those measures required or optional? Advise professor if you have trouble finding the film… NDNU’s library can help if needed.
