Abstract

In August, 1986 Kansas Governor John Carlin asked the Department of Public Administration and the Institute for Public Policy and Business Research of the University of Kansas to examine local government organization. Local governments provide the basic services that effect the daily lives of Kansans. In this period of limited state resources and increased demands for services, especially to encourage economic development, efficiency in service delivery is a central concern in government. This report examines how the structure of local government diminishes efficiency and explores several reforms that promise to increase efficiency.
