Question

civics help will give medals

Answer 1

Special purpose districts are

agencies that accept tasks from the national government

neighborhood groups without government

local governments designed to meet a specific need

regions created only for running state elections

Answer 2

Well a special purpose district is kind of an "independent government" in the sense that they don't have to answer to local governments (in example: County, Municipal, Townships). I'd have to go with B on this one, though I don't like the phrase "neighborhood groups"..
