Please find the link to textbook

https://www.rug.nl/about-us/who-are-we/sustainability/greenoffice/cursus/myth3/policypracticeanddigitalscience.pdf

Suppose you lead a task force that is developing a simulation to provide strategic planning recommendations for property use zoning for a county of 750,000 residents. The zoning board and county commissioners want a simulation that allows them to assess the impact of various zoning decisions based on a variety of dynamic factors, including age, race, education, and income status.

Submit a 2-page (double-spaced) paper addressing the following which excludes title page and references :

  1. First, identify which of the three views discussed in the chapter that would provide the best quality assessment for the situation described above, and explain your decision.
  2. Explain how would you ensure the highest level of accuracy with your simulation, and how would you go about determining accuracy?

Ensure that you include at least two (one from course material (assigned readings/lecture and one from external sources) APA-compliant references and corresponding in-text citations.

Answer the three questions from the following scenario, in very short answers:

Considerations Involving a Service Concession Arrangement. You are a town council member in the seaside town of Pleasantville. Poor economic conditions and unusually severe weather conditions have affected tourism in the town, leading to significantly reduced sales, income, and hotel resort tax collections. Town revenue is 50 percent below budget, while expenditures remain constant at budgeted levels; hence, a sizable budget deficit is imminent. A group of investors has approached the town council with a proposal to take over operations of metered parking areas and the municipal beach parking garage for 20 years. In return for the anticipated parking revenues, the town will receive a $1 million up-front payment and retain full ownership of the parking operations at the end of the agreement. The town will also have some control over rates charged and will collect parking fines assessed. The town will continue to make debt payments related to the garage construction.

You perform some research and find that two larger cities in a neighboring state entered into a similar arrangement to mixed reviews. While city officials were praised for balancing their budgets and spending additional funds on local government programs, drivers complained about higher rates and frequent meter and parking garage malfunctions.

1. What questions do you have about the proposal?

2. Evaluate the proposal on a long-term and short-term basis.

3. How do you think the agreement would affect the city’s bond rating?

Answer the following questions with very short answers.

A. How are general long-term liabilities distinguished from other long-term liabilities of the government? How does the financial reporting of general long-term liabilities differ from the financial reporting of other long-term liabilities?

B. What disclosures about long-term liabilities are required in the notes to the financial statements?

C. What is the purpose of a debt service fund? Does a debt service fund require budgeting? Why or why not?

D. Although the most common type of general long-term liabilities are those arising from financing activities (e.g., bonds, notes, and capital leases), general long-term liabilities can also be created through operating activities. Provide examples of long-term liabilities other than those related to financing.

E. What is overlapping debt? Why would a citizen care about the amount of overlapping debt reported? Why would a government care about the amount of overlapping debt reported?

F. Governments are prevented from borrowing unlimited funds through the enforcement of debt limits. Explain the concept of a debt limit. How are debt limits computed? How is the concept of borrowing power or debt margin connected to debt limits?

Involving the Community in Surveys

/in /by

From politics to marketing, from sociology to public health, surveys are routinely used for gathering information about an identified population. Surveys may cover a large swath of a population, such as the U.S. Census, or represent a microcosm of a larger population, such as a neighborhood public health survey.

In community health assessment, surveys are commonly used to explore an issue more widely than is possible through individual interviews or focus groups. Surveys may collect quantitative or qualitative data, or both. This week, you examine the use of surveys in community health assessment. Specifically, you consider the advantages and challenges of involving community members in both the design and implementation of surveys.

For this Discussion, review the Resources related to community involvement in survey design and implementation. Review the media titled Surveys. Consider some of the different ways that surveys were implemented and how the community was or was not involved in their design and implementation.

With these thoughts in mind:

 

3 pages of one advantage and one challenge of conducting community public health surveys and explain why. Describe one benefit and one limitation of involving the community in designing a survey and explain why. Then, describe one advantage and one challenge to involving the community in the implementation of a survey and explain why.

Be specific and use the Resources, media, and current literature to support your response.
