Article III, Section 1 of the Local Government Act, 1694 provided that, "Every Region as defined by the Proclamation of Punta Santiago, or admitted thereafter into the Federation, shall, after their election in accordance with this Act, thereafter be administered by a Governor, who shall be elected at large by the voters of that Region, and shall serve for a 6-year term. The Governor must be at least 25 years of age, able to read and write, of sound mind, and must be a registered voter of the Region where they intend to run for office."

Article XII, Section 2 of the Regional and Local Government Organization Act, 1699 further empowered regional legislatures, stating that they "...are authorized to create and charter localities below the level of states such as: municipalities, burghs, and other local communities as they may require. Regions may use different terms to refer to a “Municipality”, but the general term for this subdivision shall be generally known as a “Municipality”."
