Answer: Commission Form of Government.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Commission form of government came to be as a result of the Galveston hurricane of 1900, was supported by mostly the businessmen group and was designed to elect at least 7 commissioners who would function as the executive and legislative arm of the city for the rebuilding of the city. These commissioners became responsible for ensuring taxation, finance, city safety etc.

Because of the success encountered in the Commission form of government in Galveston now regarded as a Progressive reform, it inspired other states like Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth to adopt it .
