What is the power/function of this branch as a local legislative body?
A district council makes rules and laws for the city or neighborhood, like rules for parks, streets, and trash pickup. It also decides how to spend local money for things like roads, police, and libraries.

What are its limitations, compared to the state and national levels of Congress?
A district council can only make laws for its local area and must follow state and federal laws. It also can't print money, make treaties, or declare war, and it has less money and power than state or national lawmakers.
