Talk:Special-purpose district

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think it is an error to describe the PANYNJ as a "special-purpose district"; the PA is not a district, although it does have a special purpose, and operates subject to an interstate compact approved by Congress. 18.24.0.120 07:29, 31 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Thanks. May be you can add an explanation of interstate compact in this or a separate article? - Patrick 20:30, 31 Dec 2003 (UTC)

I have created a new interstate compact page. 18.24.0.120 17:47, 31 Jan 2004 (UTC)

as an aside, many special districts had the ability to opt into a 457 Deferred Comp program in lieu of Social Security.--Billymac00 (talk) 14:42, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Only interstate compacts require federal approval. Special districts crossing state lines do not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gadickson (talk • contribs) 14:41, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
