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.

Download or read book State and Local Finances Under Pressure written by David L. Sjoquist and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and Local Finances under Pressure explores the future of state and local government fiscal systems given the numerous pressures they face from economic, legal, technological, demographic and political forces. It explores how these multiple forces play out in terms of the changes state and local governments should and are likely to make. The contributors argue that state and local governments must make substantial 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. The first chapter provides a historic perspective of state and local fiscal 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. Policymakers, economists, political scientists, fiscal policy analysts and public administrators will find this comprehensive book of interest.

Book Synopsis Fiscal Health for Local Governments by : Beth Walter Honadle
Download or read book Fiscal Health for Local Governments written by Beth Walter Honadle and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-12-18 with total page 288 pages. 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.

Download or read book Aging and the Macroeconomy written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-01-10 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is in the midst of a major demographic shift. In the coming decades, people aged 65 and over will make up an increasingly large percentage of the population: The ratio of people aged 65+ to people aged 20-64 will rise by 80%. This shift is happening for two reasons: people are living longer, and many couples are choosing to have fewer children and to have those children somewhat later in life. The resulting demographic shift will present the nation with economic challenges, both to absorb the costs and to leverage the benefits of an aging population. Aging and the Macroeconomy: Long-Term Implications of an Older Population presents the fundamental factors driving the aging of the U.S. population, as well as its societal implications and likely long-term macroeconomic effects in a global context. The report finds that, while population aging does not pose an insurmountable challenge to the nation, it is imperative that sensible policies are implemented soon to allow companies and households to respond. It offers four practical approaches for preparing resources to support the future consumption of households and for adapting to the new economic landscape.
