Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Accounting and Reporting, an Address Before the Maine State Board of Trade, at Lewiston, Maine, March 11, 1915: And a Form for the Classification of Revenues and Expenditures in a Town Report The practical goal of present-day municipal progress is the adoption by our cities and towns of the efficient methods employed by successful private business. One of the first and most essential steps toward that goal is the establishment of an adequate system of accounting and reporting. The government of our municipalities until recently has been considered the one outstanding failure in the American system. Inefficient, archaic business methods have been so common that the citizens in general have complacently acquiesced in them as in the inevitable, to be expected and endured along with measles and taxes. But we are now entering upon a new era. These early years of the twentieth century are witnessing a municipal renaissance. In its earlier development this municipal awakening had for its more prominent aspect reform in the organization of government. The movement for government by commission swept the country from New England to California. According to its optimistic proponents, the commission form was to be a panacea for our municipal ills. Recent experience, however, has clearly indicated that reform in organization alone cannot be depended upon to produce efficient government. It was soon discovered that many commission-governed cities, together with cities of the older type, tolerated business methods discarded a generation ago by successful private corporations. The realization of this fact gave rise to the second great force, which is now energizing American municipal progress, - the efficiency movement. This remedy has the practical advantage of being limited in its application to no one form of government. The vital practical aim of the efficiency movement is to apply modern business methods to municipal administration.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economist David Merriman of the University of Illinois at Chicago reviews more than 30 individual studies in the most comprehensive assessment of tax increment financing (TIF) with practical recommendations for policy makers and practitioners. The report finds that while TIF has the potential to draw investment into neglected places, it has not accomplished the goal of promoting economic development in most cases. First implemented in the 1950s, TIF funds economic development within a defined district by earmarking increases in future property tax revenues that result from increases in real estate values in the district. The tax revenue can be used for public infrastructure or to compensate private developers for their investments, but TIF is prone to several pitfalls: it often captures some revenues that would have been generated through normal appreciation in property values, it can be exploited by cities to obtain revenues that would otherwise go to overlying government entities such as school districts, and it can make cities' financial decisions less transparent by separating them from the normal budget process. The report recommends several ways that state and local policy makers can reform TIF practices going forward.
