A privately owned island off the coast of Florida has been left to you by the eccentric owner who recently died. The island is large enough for several small communities to be developed. Start off on the right foot by establishing a local government, a judicial system, and a law enforcement system. The only stipulation is that you cannot be the dictator of the island.
For the Unit V Mini Project, you will describe the following points:
• the type of local government you would establish (e.g., county, city),
• the form of that government (e.g., township, municipal charter),
• the management system (e.g., commission, mayor, council),
• how leadership positions would be instated (e.g., appointment, election),
• the type of law enforcement and judicial system you would put into place, and
• your rehabilitation system for any criminal offender.
Mix and match your government, judicial, and law enforcement decisions, but you must fully explain the reasons why you chose the types of systems.
Address how your government would work with other governments/agencies and in what ways.
