520 | 3 |a"This study reviews historical trends in municipal finance in Canada to determine if there is any validity to two hypotheses that have been put forward to explain the deterioration of urban infrastructure: Municipalities have been devoting an increasing portion of their budgets to expenditures on "soft" services (education, health and social services). This means that expenditures on "soft" services have crowded out expenditures on "hard" services (roads, water and sewers). Municipalities do not have appropriate revenues to make the required expenditures on "hard" services: transfers from other levels of government have fallen, there is pressure to keep property taxes down and municipalities do not want to increase their debt burden"--Abstract. |
