Trouble with such a feature is that it makes for EZ mode in a game that’s already a bit of a city painter.

There’s no issue with city services as it is, they work well.

But too few fire engines or too many traffic jams are the problems, not the city services behavior.

Have a look at the districts in the city I've been referencing lately.

They're somewhat small. Most don't have the city service building within them.

But those districts are controlling my economy by narrowing my imports to raw materials, creating refined materials for generic industry goods manufacturing, and eventually shipping to commercial.

It's all to do with those districts and train stations.

All that point out that effective district use would make difficult or unnecessary to activate the options you've suggested.

I find the resources run out too quickly :(
Indeed they do.

I found this to be the case, so for ore and oil I just paint the district so that they'll import and refine those raw materials then ship the refined materials to generic industry to produce goods.

Since Ag and Forestry don't deplete, I will zone some on a resource zone and some off of a resource zone so that the first step of the supply chain is at least partly local for those types.

I'm letting some death waves smooth out in that city right now and once the graph is worth showing off, I'll post an explanation of what I did to stabilize it tonight or tomorrow.
