local law
Local law refers to rules and regulations created by city or county governments to address community-specific issues, such as zoning, noise, and public safety. These laws ensure that local needs and standards are met, maintaining order and quality of life within the community. They can include ordinances, regulations, and codes that residents, businesses, and visitors must follow. Local laws are enforceable by municipal authorities and often work in conjunction with state and federal laws to govern daily activities and protect residents’ rights.
