The Galveston Plan, developed in 1901 after the devastating 1900 hurricane, was a revolutionary form of city government that created a commission system where elected leaders each oversaw specific areas of municipal responsibility. This streamlined, efficient model, designed to quickly rebuild and protect Galveston, proved so effective that it spread to hundreds of cities nationwide, becoming known as the “Galveston Plan.” While few cities still use the pure commission form today, the Galveston Plan left a lasting legacy in city governance, inspiring reforms that still shape modern municipal management across the United States.
