Book Description
Many observers have contended that the stock of municipal infrastructure has consistently deteriorated over the last 20 years, with the corollary that no level of government is able to adequately finance new facilities or the maintenance of existing facilities. This paper provides an overview of alternative financing mechanisms for municipal infrastructure, including development charges, special district financing, user fees, bond financing, trust funds or revolving loan funds, and privatization. For each alternative, it defines the instrument and indicates the circumstances for which the instrument is best suited. The paper also assesses each alternative according to six criteria: efficiency, equity, effectiveness, environmental sensitivity, innovation, and impact on housing.

Unlocking Land Values to Finance Urban Infrastructure

ISBN: 0821377108
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Land-based financing of urban infrastructure is growing in importance in the developing world. Why is it so difficult to finance urban infrastructure investment, when land values typically increase by more than the cost of investment? Unlocking Land Values to Finance Urban Infrastructure examines the theory underlying different instruments of land-based finance, such as betterment levies, developer exactions, impact fees, and the exchange of publicly owned land assets for infrastructure. It provides a wealth of case-study illustrations of how different land-based financing tools have been implemented, and the lessons learned from these experiences. This practical guide is designed to help expand the role of land-based financing in urban capital budgets in a way that strengthens urban infrastructure finance and urban land markets.
