One thing I loved in the game "Sim City 4" is the fact you could select diffrent City Ordinances. While Civ 4 is not just a city it might be fun to have "National Ordinances" which would work the same way. It would be much like the existing "Civics" in Civ4 except rather than selecting from a few in each category you would just pick between 2 choices; approved or disapproved. Here are some examples of Ordinances from Sim City 4.
Legalized Gambling - Gives Incomes and allows to build Casinos but brings Unhappiness from crime.
Community CPR Training - Would Require a Hospital and give more health but would coast some maintenance.
Water Conservation Program - Not sure how this would fit without a water mod.
Paper Waste Reduction - Again this would probably need a Garbage Mod.
Free Clinic Program - Would Require a Hospital and give more health but would coast some maintenance.
Smoke Detector Program - Since there is no fires in the game really it would probably only be some sort of health or happiness benefit.
Neighborhood Watch Program - This could help increase happiness and help fight against spies.
Tourism Promotion Program - This would increase trade.
Junior Sports Program - This would give some happiness and healthiness.
Power Conservation Act - Again this would need a Power Mod.
Carpool Incentive Program - Perhaps Health from less smog and increases trade from the roadways having less people on the road.
Commuter Shuttle Service - Perhaps Health from less smog and increases trade from the roadways having less people on the road.
Clean Air Act - Probably more health but less production.
Youth Curfew Act - Similar to Neighborhood watch.
Automobile Emission Reduction Act - This would increase health.
Tire Recycling Program Again would need a Garbage Mod.
Nuclear Free Zone - Would disallow nuclear power plants but would give lots of happiness for doing so.
Pro-Reading Campaign - This could give some science.

Other ideas not in Sim City 4
Anti-Drug Campaign - This could increase health.
Anti-Drunk Driving - This could Increase health.
Alcohol Prohibition - Makes alcohol illegal.
Legalizing Marijuana - Makes Hemp Legal
Green Energy Programs - Makes green buildings easier to produce at the cost of money.
Daylight Saving Time - Increases production.
You get the idea. There are tons of things we could add.
