What are the responsibilities of the municipal government?

  1. International diplomacy

  2. National security

  3. Social & community health, recycling programs, transportation & utilities, snow removal, policing, firefighting, emergency services

  4. Central banking

The correct answer is: Social & community health, recycling programs, transportation & utilities, snow removal, policing, firefighting, emergency services

Municipal government's responsibilities focus on the well-being of the local community. These include managing social and community health programs, implementing recycling methods, maintaining transportation systems and utilities, ensuring snow removal services, and overseeing policing, firefighting, and emergency services. Municipal governments do not handle international diplomacy, national security, or central banking as these fall under the jurisdiction of higher levels of government.
