Download or read book Detroit Resurrected To Bankruptcy and Back written by Nathan Bomey and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-04-25 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when an iconic American city goes broke? At exactly 4:06 p.m. on July 18, 2013, the city of Detroit filed for bankruptcy. It was the largest municipal bankruptcy in American history—the Motor City had finally hit rock bottom. But what led to that fateful day, and how did the city survive the perilous months that followed? In Detroit Resurrected, Nathan Bomey delivers the inside story of the fight to save Detroit against impossible odds. Bomey, who covered the bankruptcy for the Detroit Free Press, provides a gripping account of the tremendous clash between lawyers, judges, bankers, union leaders, politicians, philanthropists, and the people of Detroit themselves. The battle to rescue this iconic city pulled together those who believed in its future—despite their differences. Help came in the form of Republican governor Rick Snyder, a technocrat who famously called himself “one tough nerd”; emergency manager Kevyn Orr, a sharp-shooting lawyer and “yellow-dog Democrat”; and judges Steven Rhodes and Gerald Rosen, the key architects of the grand bargain that would give the city a second chance at life. Detroit had a long way to go. Facing a legacy of broken promises, the city had to seek unprecedented sacrifices from retirees and union leaders, who fought for their pensions and benefits. It had to confront the consequences of years of municipal corruption while warding off Wall Street bond insurers who demanded their money back. And it had to consider liquidating the Detroit Institute of Arts, whose world-class collection became an object of desire for the city’s numerous creditors. In a tight, suspenseful narrative, Detroit Resurrected reveals the tricky path to rescuing the city from $18 billion in debt and giving new hope to its citizens. Based on hundreds of exclusive interviews, insider sources, and thousands of records, Detroit Resurrected gives a sweeping account of financial ruin, backroom intrigue, and political rebirth in the struggle to reinvent one of America’s iconic cities.

Download or read book The Municipal Financial Crisis written by Mark Moses and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-06 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: City governments are going bankrupt. Even the ones that aren’t are often stuck in financial chaos. It is easy to blame pensions, poor leadership, or a bad economy. But the problems go much deeper. With decades of experience in local government, author Mark Moses showcases the inside world of the city decision-making process that has spawned these crises. It becomes clear: City governments are maxing out their budgets because they are trying to maximize services. This book, likely the most ambitious attempt by someone who has worked in government to radically examine the delivery of municipal services since 'Reinventing Government' was published more than 25 years ago, explores why city governments pursue an open-ended mission and why bailouts and trendy budgeting processes will be, at best, only temporary solutions. Of interest to current and future city council members, regional and state government officials, those covering city government, financial analysts, city management, and individuals and organizations interested in influencing city policy, this book argues that cities won’t thrive until city hall is disrupted.

This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual strives to provide a clearer path for judges and clerks of court handling a chapter 9 case. It outlines the statutory requirements and processes that apply in any Chapter 9 case and provides examples of relevant cases and resources. It is organized into several parts including: Part II summarizes the history of Chapter 9 and discusses constitutional challenges to the original municipal bankruptcy laws enacted in 1934 and the structural and constitutional issues analyzed by lower courts in the context of Chapter 9. Part II presents and overview of the Chapter 9 process, contrasting it with the Chapter 11 process and providing several primers on issues unique to a Chapter 9 case. This section also includes basic information on matters, such as municipal accounting, the municipal bond market, and public pension obligations. Part IV identifies key administrative matters for the judge and the clerk of court in a Chapter 9 case. Part V explains what transpires after the filing of a Chapter 9 petition and appointment of the bankruptcy judge. It follows not only the legal steps required at the beginning of the case and eligibility determination, but also covers questions, issues, and information the judge may want to consider as the case starts down the Chapter 9 path. Part VI discusses the administration of the case -- i.e. what happens after the order for relief but before the plan confirmation process. Part VII covers the end of a case: it examines the plan, the disclosure statement, and the confirmation process. it includes information on postconfirmation jurisdiction and implementation issue. You will also find information about modification of the plan or if the debtor is unable to confirm a plan within a reasonable time, or dismissal of a case. Part VII is devoted to smaller municipal cases and cases involving special purpose entities or instrumentalities of a state. Part IX focuses on larger municipal cases. These cases can present factors and considerations unique to the size of, and stakeholders, in these cases. Part X summarizes key takeaway points for judges and clerks of the court handling Chapter 9 cases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shades of Public Finance Vol. 1 lifts the curtain on aspects of American civil and financial underpinnings that most people know little about. Local water treatment systems, state university campuses, roads, parks and many other features of our cities and states have been built with local control and local decision-making because imaginative figures like Richard Sigal found ways to turn community assets into cash through bonds. Sigal explains in clear language how bonds are structured, who gets rich, who gets stuck and how politics impacts bond financing. Sigal highlights the frightening prospect of centralized, federal control of local communities infrastructure and growth because municipal bankruptcy has become an acceptable strategy in difficult financial times, despite workable options that preserve local creditworthiness.
