The following excerpt is from Kessler v. Grand Cent. Dist. Management Ass'n, Inc., 158 F.3d 92 (2nd Cir. 1998):
Id. at 481, 88 S.Ct. 1114; see id. at 483, 88 S.Ct. 1114 ("virtually every American lives within what he and his neighbors regard as a unit of local government with general responsibility and power for local affairs"). If "general governmental powers" have been delegated, the fact of the delegation does not "insulate" the recipient of the power "from the standard of substantial voter equality." Board of Estimate v. Morris, 489 U.S. at 693, 109 S.Ct. 1433.
