Municipalities as Social Network

I am wondering whether it makes sense for a municipality (a village or city) to create an online social network (or to join one or more of them). Is the fact that you share streets, public services, etc. enough to join a network like this? Otherwise, is it a public service (i.e. obligation) to provide information/links to everything that goes on within the (geographical) limits of the municipality?
I think I would subscribe to my city's Netvibes Universe, if it were to provide one.
