The federal government and state laws can control the local government in the raising its revenue. This is one power that it has with the local government. The state should be aware of the financial needs of the local government and give support accordingly. It is upon the jurisdiction of the state whether it sees that there is a need to raise tax or there is a need to provide more services in the local government. It still depends and controlled whether the revenues of the states is high or not, adjustments must take place.
