Book excerpt: Local governments across the United States are struggling to raise revenue to pay for public services. Increased demands by citizens for more and better services; the ever-rising costs of providing services; and a plethora of legal and political restrictions on raising tax revenue have left many American local governments in dire fiscal straits. The fiscal autonomy of local governments has been declining for several decades. By ceding financial control to the states, localities cede political control over their affairs. Paralleling this loss of financial and political control, local governments are losing control over the property tax, their most stable and reliable source of revenue. Brunori explores the roots of the current fiscal crisis and evaluates various relief proposals. He champions the property tax, offering a blueprint for strengthening this oft-maligned instrument and returning the tax autonomy that has been vital to the success of the American political and economic systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: he financial consequences of the recession that spanned from December 2007 through June of 2009 has increased congressional interest in the financial health of state and local governments. State and local tax revenues declined, expenditures climbed, and debt increased. Even though tax revenue has begun to rebound, expenditures for unemployment benefits and other social programs remain elevated. In response to these state and local government fiscal headwinds, several hearings have been held early in the 112th Congress to examine the health of state and local government finances and the potential effects on the economic recovery. This book provides an overview of state and local government finances and how these governments incorporate borrowing into their budget and the debt parameters of each state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the federal government has cut back its support for domestic services, state governments increasingly have been forced to assume a leadership position. In this book, prominent experts describe and analyze how state governments in the 1990s have coped with fiscal stress through changes in tax and spending policies, as well as through attempts to "reinvent government" by abandoning long-established policies. In an era when state budgets verge on the brink of deficit, state governments face the difficult task of reconciling the public's wish for low taxes with its desire for increased services--better schools, improved health systems, more prisons. This volume provides both a comparative overview of the fifty states as they try to meet conflicting needs and incisive case studies of six states with a reputation for being national leaders--California, Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Minnesota. It explores how much substance there is to claims that states were successful in developing innovative policies. The Fiscal Crisis of the States draws upon research to analyze what is really happening in the state capitols. Boiling down the diverse experiences of various states into a number of important lessons, this book will be a valuable resource for academics, policymakers, and public administrators, as well as the general reader, to understand the reality of state fiscal policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the future of state and local government fiscal systems given the numerous pressures they face from economic, legal, technological, demographic and political forces, this book looks at how these multiple forces play out in terms of the changes state and local governments should or are likely to make. changes and that failure to act is likely to result in adverse effects and increasing pressures for modifications that are more difficult to implement and more politically unpalatable. Without reform, state and local fiscal systems will grow increasingly out of sync with economic reality. The authors suggest that government responses are likely to be evolutionary, but that in 25 years the recorded changes will be substantial. trends. Each of the subsequent chapters describes the nature of one of the pressures state and local governments face including: political and legal forces, globalization of business, demographic and technological changes, deregulation of utilities and urban sprawl.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis studies local government behavior or response in times of fiscal stress and pressure. In this particular case, fiscal stress is a situation whereby externally imposed tax cuts require strin-gent fiscal limitation on local government expenditure revenues. Local governments in Washington State have faced externally im-posed property tax cuts for the past eight years. The state legislature, in attempting to provide tax relief to property owners, passed an omnibus property tax relief bill in the 1971 Extraordinary Session. The property tax relief package included a tax levy limitation which restricted the amount levy revenue may be increased in any year. Local taxing districts were permitted no more than six percent increase per year plus assess-ments against new construction. The scope of my study involves a brief historical review of property tax cuts imposed on local government by state egislatures, courts, and state constitutions throughout the country. Factors that contribute to greater state control over local fiscal affairs using prop-erty tax limitation measure have been identified and analyzed utilizing available literature. An attempt has been made to show how local fiscal flexibility has been undermined by such measures. To demonstrate the effect and impact of tax limitation measures on local government, a case review has been conducted by analyzing the 106 percent legislative limitation. An appraisal of the aggregate impact on local government property tax revenues throughout the State of Washington has been conducted. Available literature and the City of Spokane has been used to demonstrate how local governments behave or respond under such spending limitations"--Document.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiscal Health for Local Governments offers a how-to approach to identifying and solving financial problems. Its principal selling point lies in its assumptions: instead of using the vocabulary and research agendas of economist, finance scholars, and political scientists, it will appeal to readers who lack sophisticated knowledge in these areas and nevertheless need practical advice. The book stems from the Fiscal Health Education Program, an applied economics program at the University of Minnesota. It uses three measures of fiscal health — financial condition, trend analysis, and financial trend monitoring system — as the basis for advocating particular fiscal strategies. The book examines the tools that can be used to assess the condition of a local government's fiscal health and some of the policy causes or remedies for certain situations, as well as some of the strategies governments can pursue to maintain and improve health. It will serve as a primer for readers interested in understanding financial processes and alternatives, and as a practical guide for those who need access to fiscal measurement tools. How-to approach will appeal to readers who lack sophisticated knowledge Contains discussion questions and anonymous case studies of actual cities and municipalities Presents practical methods for identifying and solving common fiscal problems

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiscal health of local governments and municipalities has remained an important issue since the crises of the 1970s in places like New York, Philadelphia and Cleveland. More recently, the bankruptcy of Orange County California raised the possibility of a different type of financial failure than earlier ones. The beginning of the 21st century has witnessed two major economic bubbles including the dotcom and housing bubbles. These economic cycles combined with increasing health care, pension and other structural costs continue to challenge the fiscal viability of many jurisdictions. In particular, the economic and financial crisis of 2007-2008 is likely to result in potentially serious fiscal challenges for local jurisdictions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and local government tax revenues dropped steeply following the most severe housing market contraction since the Great Depression. The authors identify five main channels through which the housing market affects state and local tax revenues: property tax revenues, transfer tax revenues, sales tax revenues, and personal income tax revenues. They find that property tax revenues do not tend to decrease following house price declines. The other four channels have had a relatively modest effect on state tax revenues. These channels jointly reduced tax revenues by $15 billion from 2005 to 2009, which is about 2% of total state own-source revenues in 2005. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent recession has brought fiscal policy back to the forefront, with economists and policy makers struggling to reach a consensus on highly political issues like tax rates and government spending. At the heart of the debate are fiscal multipliers, whose size and sensitivity determine the power of such policies to influence economic growth. Fiscal Policy after the Financial Crisis focuses on the effects of fiscal stimuli and increased government spending, with contributions that consider the measurement of the multiplier effect and its size. In the face of uncertainty over the sustainability of recent economic policies, further contributions to this volume discuss the merits of alternate means of debt reduction through decreased government spending or increased taxes. A final section examines how the short-term political forces driving fiscal policy might be balanced with aspects of the long-term planning governing monetary policy. A direct intervention in timely debates, Fiscal Policy after the Financial Crisis offers invaluable insights about various responses to the recent financial crisis.
