Starbase establishes municipal court to serve growing population

Starbase, a SpaceX company town, is establishing its own municipal court. The proposed ordinance includes a part-time judge, prosecutor, and clerk. The mayor will initially serve as judge. This follows the creation of a volunteer fire department and plans for a police department. The city cites its growing population, increased calls for service, and the need for rapid response due to its remote location and SpaceX operations.
