Greetings all,
With the districting feature of Cities: Skylines, interactive city journals can be more interactive!
I am seeking city councilmen to participate in Pacifica.
Details:
1. Pacifica will be an interactive city journal utilizing a mayor-council government, based loosely on the weak-mayor type except the mayor will act as city manager OOC (Out of Character). The journal will be highly roleplayed.
2. Terms for mayor & council will be a period of 4-years in-game. There are no term limits.
3. I am currently seeking 6 councilmen. In the future, additional districts may be created depending on city size. If additional people want to contest the councilmen after a period of 4 years, then elections will be held. The position of Mayor (and thereby City Manager) will be elected.
4. Each district cannot have more than 7000 residents/workers. Once a district obtains 7000+ residents/workers, then that district will be split and an open council seat will be created. Until the council seat is filled, the old councilmen will continue to represent that district.
5. A quorum is the majority of the council. What this means is that throughout the week, the Mayor will post updates and any outstanding issues. Pacifica's council will vote and decide on the issues. The Mayor is a non-voting member, unless there is a tie. If there is no action on an issue for a period of 24 hours and a majority of councilmen have acted, then that issue will be settled. The maximum time for an issue to be open will be 72 hours.
6. During the course of the city, the Mayor reserves the right to take emergency measures to save the city. Otherwise, the mayor should save the game and bring any outstanding issues to the council.
7. I am using the vanilla version of CS (no mods).
8. We will be using the Black Hills map.
9. If a councilman is absent from 3 rounds of voting, or a period of 72 hours, then the Mayor may remove that councilman for inactivity.
How to Apply:
Post a picture of your councilmen, the name of your district, and a little background of your character. Draw up your development plan for the city, particularly your district.
PACIFICA CITY COUNCIL:
MAYOR & COUNCIL (Key - Position: IC name = forum username)
Mayor: Enzo Scalisi = beeman5
City Manager: Holly Johnson = beeman5
Ward 1: OPEN
Ward 2: OPEN
Ward 3: OPEN
Ward 4: OPEN
Ward 5: OPEN
Ward 6: OPEN
History of the City:
Mar 2015 - A group of citizens gathered together to create a new city: Pacifica, along the shores of the Black Hills River. It was prime real estate, but a big risk. There was no real reason to build here at all. The river was nothing special. There was not much in terms of beaches and it was easy to drive an hour or two each way to the nearest town. However, with the backing of a variety of donors, the group elected their first mayor and council.
