Asset Management Basics: A Guide for Communities of all Sizes

You’re not in local government for the money or the recognition. You’re here because you care about your citizens and want to leave your small city or county better than you found it. You try to use taxpayer dollars to deliver the best possible outcomes for your residents, and your blood, sweat and tears have gone into building a safe, sustainable community that will last for generations.
