Dillon's rule established that local governments may exercise only those powers explicitly granted to them by the state, those clearly implied by these explicit power, and those absolutely essential to the declared objectives and purposes of the the local government. In your words let me know why you think this rule was put in place?
From the perspective of state government, mandates are necessary to ensure that vital activities are performed and desirable goals are achieved. State mandates promote uniformity of policy. From your point of view, why would local governments see it differently?
Three types of state and local organizations are common: task forces, advisory commissions on intergovernmental relations, and departments of community affairs. Give me some examples of some of these organizations.
