THE CHANGING OF A TOWN'S NAME WAS POSSIBLE WITH A DECISION BY THE MUNICIPAL AND PROVINCIAL COUNCIL AND AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE COUNCIL OF STATE AND THE APPROVAL OF THE COUNCIL OF MINISTERS. IN THE NEW LAW, THE MUNICIPALITY WAS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITH A DECISION BY PARLIAMENT TAKEN WITH THREE-FOURTH MAJORITY, AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE MAYOR AND APPROVAL BY MINISTRY OF THE INTERIOR. IN LEGAL ARTICLE 1580 ON MUNICIPAL CITIZENSHIP EVERY TURK WHO IS LISTED AS A RESIDENT IN THE CITY REGISTER, IS A CITIZEN.
IN THE NEW LAW HOWEVER, THE WORD "TURK" HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH "EVERYONE". FURTHERMORE, PEOPLE ARE NOT CITIZENS OF THE PLACE WHERE THEIR IDENTITY CARDS ARE REGISTERED, BUT OF THE CITY WHERE THEY HAVE DECLARED THEIR RESIDENCY. NEW LAWS PERTAINING TO SUCH MUNICIPAL COMPETENCES AND TASKS AS CITY INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INNER-CITY TRAFFIC, TRADE STIMULATION AND THE REQUIREMENT FOR MUNICIPALITIES WITH A POPULATION OVER 50000 TO ESTABLISH WOMEN AND CHILDREN'S SHELTERS, HAVE BEEN ADDED.
WHILE THE OLD LAW LEANED ON SOCIALIST THOUGHT, THE NEW ONE IS, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF GLOBALISATION, MORE BASED ON THE IDEA OF LOCALISATION.
WHILST THE THE OLD LAW EMPHASISED THE SOCIAL DIMENSION OF THE LEGAL OBLIGATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY, THE NEW ONE BRINGS TO THE FOREFRONT THE ECONOMIC ONE.
ANOTHER NOTEWORTHINESS IS THE MUNICIPALITIES FACILITATING SERVICE BESIDES RENDERING IT.
