All Politics Is Local: The Economic and Political Guide to Local Policy Issues (All Politics Is Local - The Collection)

All Politics is Local. I suggest that what happens at the local government level is more important than what happens at the state and federal levels. Residents are more concerned about the impact of local development on issues like traffic, parking, neighborhoods, schools, and policies that will improve their quality of life. Readers of this book will see another side to serving in local government. This book on local politics is unique in that it goes beyond discussing the simple structure of local government. In my first book, I included personal stories, like how I ran my campaign and interacted with City Appointees. In this book I focus on policy issues by sharing economic and political insights into local decision making. I cover basic economic and political principles and how they get applied to local policies. This book includes more recent topics like, dealing with the Covid pandemic, defunding Police, banning short-term rentals, eliminating single-family zoning and many more.
