Local political structure, administrative capacity, and revenue policy choice 

 - Georgia, USA :  Carl Vinson Institute of Government,  2007 
<br/><br/> The extent to which local political structure relates to public policy has long been a topic of controversy among academics and practitioners, yet the role of administrative capacity in shaping public policy has been neglected. This study incorporates administrative capacity into the theory of political structure and public policy and empirically tests the factors that determine the adoption of various impact fees in Florida counties. The findings suggest that reformed governments have a modest effect on the likelihood of impact fee adoption and that administrative capacity significantly influences park service impact fees. Thus, officials may wish to consider local capacity in order to successfully implement programs and policy when making their decisions
