Tll2 principal areas of improvement involve the abolition of the outmoded quoruin court system with its confused merger of the executive, legislative and judicial powers and its replacement with a representative legislative body similar lo existing city councils. Tha judcial powers of tlie county court, now exercised by the comty judge, have iiecn transferred to (he traditional courts to be administered by judges who must be trained in the law.

In this manner, we have provided (or a division of the irad ilional powers of government with all the henelits of checks and balances, Even more flexibility is obtained by permitting peq- ple lo abolish or merge various offices.
