This book, the third in the International City/County Management Association's (ICMA) local government
case studies series, is designed to give readers a taste of the complex issues that affect human resource decisions in today's local government organization. The cases it presents can help practicing administrators
sharpen their human resource decision-making skills and compare their decisions with those of other
administrators who have successfully tackled such problems. These cases can also help prepare future local
government administrators for the kinds of decision problems that will form the very essence of their careers
in local government management. (86 pp.)
