charter city

A charter city is a designated urban area where special rules and regulations, known as a "charter," are established to encourage economic growth and development. These rules often offer more flexibility than the surrounding region, such as different business laws or simplified bureaucratic processes. The goal is to attract investment, improve infrastructure, and provide better services, ultimately boosting the city's prosperity. Charter cities are used as a strategy to stimulate economic progress, especially in regions facing challenges with traditional governance or regulations.
