Municipal Co-Distribution Of Goods – Business Models, Stakeholders And Driving Forces For Change, Olof Moen

PSU Transportation Seminars

The presentation provides background information and illustrates driving forces of the development of municipal co-distribution of goods in Sweden. The business model is “somewhat unique” to Sweden, given the country’s comprehensive welfare sector through which local governments are often the main transport buyers in smaller municipalities without industries or commerce. In this respect, Sweden has been a pioneer in streamlining public administration at all levels replacing manual work procedures and paperwork with the use of computers and digital information, with an overall aim to allow for spending on social and political reform policies. The main business model used in municipal …

Municipal Resource Guide To Leading Practices In Cost Savings, Martin Horak, Andrew Sancton, Rachna Goswami, Umera Ali

Centre for Urban Policy and Local Governance – Publications

Ontario municipalities of all sizes face pressure to “do more with less.” Commissioned by the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs, this Resource Guide provides municipal officials with single-source information about a range of current leading practices in cost savings in small and mid-sized Ontario municipalities. Municipalities across the province are continually developing innovative practices that save costs without incurring service level reductions. Most of these practices involve small-scale initiatives that result in modest savings. Yet even modest savings add up over time, and multiple small initiatives in a single municipality can make a big difference. In addition, by providing an …

Impact Of Bike Facilities On Residential Property Prices, Wei Shi

PSU Transportation Seminars

As many cities are investing in street improvement or transportation infrastructure upgrade projects to provide better bike access or more complete bike networks, the economic value of bike infrastructure and bike facilities remains an area where many practitioners, planners and policy makers are seeking more conclusive evidence. Using residential property values as indicators of consumer preferences for bicycle infrastructure, this study focuses on advanced bike facilities which represent higher levels of bike priority or bike infrastructure investments that have been shown to be more desirable to a larger portion of the population. Estimating ordinary least squares hedonic pricing models and …

07_管治基石, 賽馬會香港歷史學習計劃

專題展覽

1842年，清廷在鴉片戰爭中戰敗，被迫簽訂《南京條約》，香港自此成為英國的殖民地。當時英國殖民地制度有直轄殖民地及自治殖民地等模式。由於華人佔香港人口絕大多數，加上鄰近中國，因此採用了權力集中、控制嚴密的直轄殖民地制度，讓少數的英國人能夠管治多數的華人。隨著時代的變遷，香港的社會和經濟走上軌道，本地精英陸續被政府吸納入管治機構，以鞏固在港的統治。居港英商先在1850年得以被委任入立法局，後來在1896年得以被委任入行政局；而居港華人則得以在1884年和1925年分別被委任入立法局和行政局。在香港逐步發展，加上華人不斷南下香港的情況下，政府須處理的事務更為繁重。為了提高政府處理事務的效率和鞏固在港的統治，香港政府在各機關的運作和架構上作出不少改變。
