Description:	The Government of Georgia (GoG) is currently preparing a new Local Self Government Code that will introduce significant modifications to the structure of local-self-governments (LSGs) in Georgia. Currently, Georgia has 63 LSGs (excluding Tbilisi and those areas not under Georgian control). If the proposed law is approved in Parliament, it would increase the number of LSG units dramatically: according to the GoG, by 2015 there would be close to 120 LSGs, and by 2018, approximately 240 LSGs overall. In this study, we estimate what the annual additional cost will be of dividing the existing set of 62 LSGs (without Tbilisi or Batumi) to create either 124 or 248 LSGs in total (i.e., dividing the existing LSGs by two or by four on average).
