Arizona State and Local Government Information
Background
For an excellent introduction to understanding local government in Arizona, Arizona Local Government located in Government Documents, is highly recommended. For the bigger picture of local governments in the United States, please refer to the Census of Governments.
Special purpose governments make up the majority of local governments in Arizona. Special purpose local governments provide a specific service (such as fire protection, water delivery, etc.) for a specified area or population. Current laws regarding Arizona special districts are available from Title 48 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. Arizona school districts (which are not currently part of our library collection) also fall into this category, with basic principles found in Article 11 of the Arizona Constitution and current laws found in Title 15 of the Arizona Revised Statutes.
