This concept of "unincorporated area", or a community or town or whatever, is facinating
to me. We don't have that in Europe! I think I like it, but I'd like to know more. What
does it actually mean? I mean I've read the wikipedia article, but I'd like to hear from a
human.
In Croatia the lowest level of government is "općina" which is a region of defined size and
has a local assembly, provides some services and can levy some taxes. Many are very
corrupt and inefficient. Those that serve only a couple of thousand of people spend most
of their income on paying the 10 or so employees in the administration.
If there is a template for disbanding them (unincorporating) in the USA, I'd be very
curious whether we can apply it here. How does a municipality unincorporate? Does this
mean that individual landowners are "holders of sovereignity" so to speak, and can decide
whether their property will belong to a municipality or not?
