LOCAL GOVERNMENT FINANCE IN THE MILWAUKEE SMSA. VOLUME II. SPECIAL STUDIES IN MUNICIPAL FINANCE

This report presents four special studies. The first attempts to construct a functional finance model of the local public economy--basic guidelines are set forth concerning which level of government should be responsible for which services; fundamentally different approaches to financing public services are highlighted; and sixteen major public services are analyzed vis-a-vis the guidelines. The second deals with a substantive reform of the real property tax, while the third examines the financing of sewer services in Milwaukee in terms of economic principles. The fourth is concerned with financing public services provided for motor vehicle owners and users.
