Within the first stage of targeted research; the authors applied standard scientific methods and procedures, namely the study and analysis of legislation (selected laws and generally binding regulations), the database of available and requested numerical data and information, which were provided by the selected subject of local self-government - the City of Košice; in the second stage of targeted research the authors created through abstraction, comparison, induction and deduction their own results and conclusions, which are presented in this paper in textual and graphical forms.
