The second phase of the local government program provided technical assistance in four major areas: association building, training and training institutionalization, municipal management, funding, finance and decentralization, and public participation and information. LGI II helped local governments to positively influence the substance of laws such as the Tax Procedure Code, Public Procurement Act, Local Taxes and Fees Law, the Urban Development Law and the Local Self-Government and Local Administration Act. During this period, USAID helped five municipalities to open municipal service centers or “one stop shops,” an important first step in improving public access to and transparency of local governments.
