Burgess is a retired attorney specializing in municipal law and has served as a public policy mediator and consulting attorney in matters affecting local and state government.About the BookImproving Local Service Delivery is a history of attempts to reform the service delivery systems of city and county governments in Georgia over the past 50 years. It focuses on proposed strategies to eliminate service duplication and double taxation of citizens in financing local government services. The constitutional equalization of legal authority between counties and municipalities is considered in terms of its impact on local service delivery. Proposals to reduce the number of counties in Georgia are evaluated. It further examines alternatives for improving local service delivery through political or functional consolidation of counties, merger of cities with counties, municipalization of Georgia's urban counties, and joint performance of city and county functions and responsibilities. Remedies for resolution of city and county disputes regarding service delivery are identified. Finally, it reviews the history and constitutional challenges regarding Georgia's Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) for financing local government services.

Download or read book Counties as Service Delivery Agents written by J. Edwin Benton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-07-30 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counties generally fulfill three service roles: traditional or state-mandated; local or municipal; and regional or urban. Benton has written the first scholarly treatment of county governments as providers of all three of these types of services, dispelling the notion that counties are mere providers of services they are mandated to perform by their state governments. County governments in the United States have become increasingly important as service providers over the past several decades, vis-a-vis municipalities and townships. These services change over time and vary from region to region. Variations in the roles that county governments play in the provision of traditional, local, and regional service are explained. Therefore, in addition to examining multiple indicators of service roles for all 3,043 counties in the United States, the analysis is extended to investigate the influence of political, state constitutions, statutes, and financial aid, population growth patterns, metropolitan/non-metropolitan status, and form of government.
