The feature of local governments system is absence of an extensive nationwide structure, in contrast to the system of state government. This stipulates the specific’s research when it should not be viewed as a set of individual elements, but as a collection of communities, which in turn consist of a set of elements. It is determined that despite the lack of attention to the private sector as part of the local community, it plays an important role in community life. After all, businesses both provide the community with jobs and swell the budget, and create opportunities for the community, particularly to attract resources in the implementation of development strategies or reduce the costs of local projects. Like this one can not leave aside the community sector as part of the local community, because there are areas where its involvement can bring the maximum benefit, particularly in some aspects of social and cultural areas. After all voluntary of association, non-profit nature of, personal interest in solving problems in the social sector are signs of community organizations. they are the key to efficient provision of this services. It is shown that the development of social sector as a promising element of the territorial community requires state support. The support should lie not in the traditional funding narrow range of community organizations, but through the practices implementation of European countries, particularly in the direction of the delegation of authority. The specific perception of community organizations like of public associations eliminates their role as a public authority. This would give them the right to address local issues. Only in this case, they will effectively carry out their functions, including the formulation and articulation of social needs. Revealed that successful and wealthy territorial community can only be subject to the participation of all sectors in the process of joint decision-making, and in the process of their implementation. And the responsibility for the effective cooperation of all sectors of the community should be put on local authorities. It is established that in conditions of the administrative-territorial reform, is the need to change in the approach to the basic concepts, in particular, of the territorial communities category as well as of a new category of amalgamated territorial community. New categories need to be identifyed and be enshrined in the legal framework.
