Questions: Which of the following is a unique feature of special purpose districts that differentiates them from other types of government? No special purpose district is able to levy taxes on the public. Officials in special purpose districts are appointed. Each kind of special purpose district serves only one function. Special purpose districts are much more likely to collaborate with other local governments to accomplish their goals.

The answer is "Each kind of special purpose district serves only one function."

This statement is incorrect. Many special purpose districts do have the authority to levy taxes to fund their operations. For example, school districts and fire protection districts often have taxing authority.

This is not universally true. While some officials in special purpose districts may be appointed, others are elected by the public. The method of selecting officials can vary depending on the specific district and its governing laws.

This is the correct answer. Special purpose districts are created to serve a specific function or provide a specific service, such as water supply, transportation, or education. This specialization differentiates them from general-purpose governments, which provide a wide range of services.

While special purpose districts may collaborate with other local governments, this is not a unique feature that differentiates them from other types of government. General-purpose governments also frequently collaborate with other local entities.
