Answer:

A new tipe of local government

Step-by-step explanation:

The city commission government was a local response to the Galveston Hurricane, in order to be more supportive with the people of Galveston - that is, those who survived it. This type of local government blended legislative and executive functions, in order to respond faster and effective to the needs of the people. It proved its governmental capability and therefore spread to other cities in Texas, as well as in other states.
