Abstract: This paper presents the results of an ongoing investigation, whose main aim is to analyze the network in which public organizations make decisions. The findings presented here resulted from a cross-sectional survey carried out with Municipal Districts from the State of Minas Gerais. Data was analyzed through statistical techniques, employing the SPSS software program. The investigation pointed out some stakeholders who are regarded as strongly influential and able to demand decision-makers' attention, and they are: the City Council, Local Population, the Accountancy Tribunal and the Management Team. The limitation of the ideas presented here are related to the fact that it is an ongoing investigation and other steps are being taken in order to fulfil the picture of stakeholder's influences at the local level in developing countries. In terms of innovation, this is one of the first empirical investigations carried out with Brazilian Municipal Districts published in Europe.
