Abstract
While small local governments lack the advantages of revenue base, adequate staff, and professionalization, the limitations of small size are replaced by its advantages: proximity to constituency, responsiveness, and flexibility. The external (federal) assistance of the 1970s helped bring about substantial local improvements and surety aided community-building efforts. Nonetheless, major small-town projects continue to be driven by local priorities and views; success of such efforts depends on the quality of local leadership and the leadership agenda itself, volunteer action, multiple assignments to public employees, and ad hoc-but effective—administration.
