Special Districts Relics of the Past or Resources for the Future

Examines more than 2,200 independent special districts that provide important services to virtually every community in the state of California. When they were created, these districts were tailored to the needs of their communities. But as those communities have grown & changed, the districts themselves have been slow to change their boundaries, functions & governance to reflect their communities. Chapters: toward visibility & accountability; strengthening Local Agency Formation Commissions; to provide information & training; understanding special district reserves; & property tax allocations to enterprise districts.Terzian, Richard R. is the author of 'Special Districts Relics of the Past or Resources for the Future' with ISBN 9780756703776 and ISBN 0756703778.
