Local Government

Question 16 • * HSA 26-27 US Government

One example of regulating zoning is

Answer
A
limiting the number of fast-food restaurants that can be built near a residential area.
B
making sure trash pickup, street cleaning, and snow-plowing services are in place.
C
raising revenue for a new city hall to replace an existing structure that is in disrepair.
D
staffing local public swimming pools and beaches with qualified lifeguards.

Explanation

Zoning rules regulate how land may be used and what kinds of businesses or buildings can be located in particular areas. Limiting fast-food restaurants near a residential area is an example of controlling land use. Trash pickup, city-hall funding, and lifeguard staffing are municipal services or budget decisions, not zoning.
