2005 MUNICIPAL INFORMATION CATALOG

What Information is Included in the Catalog? The GOMI: 2005 Municipal Information Catalog is a comprehensive guide to the organization and operations of Georgia's local governments. The Catalog is unique in that it provides the data collected directly from local governments including:

Management functions Services provided Financial management practices Planning, zoning and development procedures

Public facilities Economic development activities Public safety Form of government

What is the Purpose of the Catalog? Local elected officials, administrators, state agencies and academics are among those who find the Catalog a useful source of comprehensive information on local government operations in the State. While providing information on specific subjects such as public safety or services provided, the primary purpose of the Catalog is identifying general patterns of government management and operations.

Cautions:
Due to the large variety of local conditions and characteristics of the governments participating in the mandated survey and the turnover of local government employees, individual responses to specific survey questions may not be consistent from year to year. In addition, data is selfreported and not verified by an outside source. The data presented is best used in summary form to reflect general management practices and services among governments of a similar size.

How is the Data Collected? The data was collected through a survey prepared by the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) and administered to every municipality in Georgia with a response rate of 92 percent (487 of 529 municipalities).

How Do I Use the Catalog? 1. Determine the population group of the municipality for which you want information and whether the municipality responded to the survey. In each of the tables, municipalities are grouped by population and listed alphabetically within in each group to aid comparisons of similarly sized governments. 2. Use the "Table of Contents" to determine which tables are most likely to have the information you need. 3. Note that each chapter is paginated separately. Some chapters have several sets of tables with pages numbered accordingly. Example: Page 2.D 1 is the first page of the fourth table (Table D) in Chapter Two (Services Provided). 4. Each set of tables is preceded by a summary of totals and averages for each population group. The summary tables are useful for comparing an individual municipality to an aggregate of governments in its population group, and provide an overview of the data in each table.
