This building is called a “bouleuterion”. Its purpose was to house the “council of citizens” of a city state. A similar structure would have been used when the athenian government created the “Council of 500” which housed 50 members from each of the 10 of Athenian tribes. In my design i have an entryway leading into a courtyard. Then trough porch you would enter the theater where council meetings would take place. I imagine it would be funded trough taxation ginning that it is a governmental building.
