4.3.3.2. Financial constraint The other point on which leaders reacted as one of the challenges was the financial constraint to facilitate instruments for property valuation, to pay compensation for the expropriated people. The researcher identified that, the Municipality and Land Development and Management did not identified effective use of source of revenue. But, first of all, the broad source budget should be identified. These are the internal and external revenue source. The internal income sources are the most decisive financial support levers accessible to a municipality because without effective, predictable generation of internal revenues, it will be impossible to attract new, external sources of funding (Anand Sahasranaman & Vishnu Prasad, 2014). External financial supports will be available to municipalities only on the basis of the internal revenues they generate now and are …show more content…
Any judgment of the internal financing capability of a municipality is, therefore, a judgment on its governance standards. A better governed municipality implies better information availability, better assessment capability and better collection efficiencies that are then reflected in the quantum of revenues generated through internal financial support levers. Consequently, any effort to significantly get better the infrastructure provision scenario in Gimbi town will need to begin by giving a significant push to improving the assessment, enforcement and collection of internal revenue levers (Anand Sahasranaman & Vishnu Prasad, 2014). According to the report of Gimbi town Municipality, annual average revenue is only 5.6 million.

Municipal control or an alternative delivery method? This is the question that has intrigued all levels of local government and created intense debates between taxpayers across municipalities. The services that municipalities provide are often vital to the existence of a local area. The issues of accountability, cost savings, quality of service and democracy often arise when choosing the best options to deliver services to a municipal area. In recent years the concepts of privatization, alternative service delivery and public-private partnerships are often promoted as ways cut down on overburdened annual city budgets and promote a higher quality of service to citizens. Municipalities have historically always provided basic services such as fire protection, water purification/treatment and recreational facilities. However, would private companies or another municipality be able to better deliver the same services more efficiently or at a lower cost? The city or town often provides a political grass roots approach to most local problems. Municipalities are better positioned and have a wider scope to provide services to their constituents in order to ensure quality of service that does not erode accountability and transparency, or drive the municipality deeper into debt.

At the beginning of the 20th century, government budgeting was a decentralized process more conducive to the small government ideals at that time. The executive branch was less involved in the process and less influential in terms of funding decisions. There were no definitive procedures and no real central authority. The submission process was informal and chaotic. Each agency subm...

The Chief Financial Officer of each local municipality is in charge of creating the overall budget and User-Friendly Budget document. In conducting this survey, it will vary from the first survey in that it will incorporate more quantitative type questions. The object behind this survey is to see if I can obtain information on the number of citizens attend budget hearings for both the introduced and adopted budgets before and after the requirement of the User-Friendly Budget document. I am also attempting to gather information on whether or not CFO’s are actively attempting to increase citizen participation by effectively advertising the User-Friendly Budget. How many people have they explained what the User-Friendly Budget document is and how it works. Additionally I am attempting to see if CFO have a positive or negative reaction the new requirement to create a User-Friendly Budget document. This may be a key driving force on whether or not citizen participation increases as a result of the User-Friendly Budget. If local municipalities do not effectively advertise their budget than the expectations are that there will be little to no increase in citizen
“God’s own country, “Kerala, is a coastal state. It is dotted with small fishing villages. In the 1970s, high waves would wash away many villages with routine hits. So, every year the affected fishermen and women would receive a government compensation for clothing, blankets, nets and even replacement huts. In 1974, an architect living and working in Thiruvananthapuram approached the Chief Minister and suggested an alternate solution. He proposed that instead of giving away State resources as compensation each year,

...r pillars of public administration are equally important in the process of public administration and complement one another in the provision of quality public service. When public administrators have economy in mind they focus on the best combination of available resources to provide optimum public service. To ensure that public service is not limited to only a section of the public, the issue of equity is taken into consideration so that public interest is realized. Efficiency and effectiveness additionally go hand in hand in ensuring that allocated resources are used in the best possible manner to attain set goals. Thus whereas the first three public administration pillars – Economy, efficiency and effectiveness are concerned with how public service is provided the fourth and most recent addition (Equity) concerns with for whom public service is provided.
Sources of finance are the different methods for a business to earn and obtain money.
