In this article, the author identifies the main provisions that reflect its essential features, and defines the requirements for the organization and work of municipalities. Revealing the essence of the principles of local self-government, the author comes to the conclusion that local self-government is an independent organization of citizens' activities, which provides a solution to local problems. Local government is the most important prerequisite for the development of legal awareness of the population living in the municipality.
