The Municipal Law Deskbook is an all-encompassing primer on the common legal issues that arise in local government law practice. This book will guide practitioners in where to direct their research, as well as provide resources and suggested approaches to issue resolution.

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.
