| Summary: | "Municipal law and the organization, operation, and complexity of local government in the United States have grown exponentially in recent years. With growing complexity comes a need for a fresh, updated, and current treatment of municipal law issues and practice. The Municipal Law Deskbook provides a principled, well-organized structure for tackling the current issues that form the grist and bedrock of municipal law today. Drawing from decades of municipal law experience, editor William Scheiderich and authors share best practices for analyzing and dealing with cutting-edge topics such as the use and multiple benefits of intergovernmental agreements; current legal and administrative issues at the state and federal level relevant to municipal finance powers; taxation and borrowing; municipal bankruptcy; and more. Written for a wide audience, this book will be useful for academics, municipal lawyers, contract attorneys who regularly represent or appear before municipal governments, and lawyers whose practice brings them in close contact with federal preemption of local law"--Unedited summary from book cover |
