Editing Marion County, Indiana (section)

==Cities and towns==
Marion County has a [[consolidated city-county]] government, known as [[Unigov]], in which only four municipalities retain full government autonomy (including a mayor and city council) as "excluded cities". The remaining municipalities within the county are "included towns" and exercise very limited authority, mainly in zoning and appointing their own police departments and maintaining some of their own municipal services and town identities. They retain the ability to levy taxes for these purposes.
