Restructuring Local Government

Author
Warner, Mildred
Abstract
Fiscal stress, changing public expectations and shifting responsibilities
for services due to devolution have prompted many local governments to
consider restructuring service delivery. This web site is designed to
provide local governments with information on restructuring trends and
innovations in public sector service provision, public-private
partnerships, privatization, inter-municipal cooperation and contracting
back-in. Local government is concerned with promoting economic development
and Professor Warner's research explores the role of collaboratives and
investments in social infrastructure, such as child care, on economic
development. She co-directs the National Linking Economic Development and
Child Care Project. The website contains many economic studies and tools
useful for economic developers, local government officials and child care
policymakers.
