It proceeds to local affairs from self-governing and delegated scope and continues with direct citizens’participation in decision-making on local affairs, The author points out that the use ofthe forms of direct democracy dépends on the local régulations. Local représentative body (municipal council), local executive bodies (municipal board and mayor), and administrative bodies were described, as well as theirrespective membership, ways of élection, and compétences. The System of direct élection ofmayors has been given special attention.
