I am pleased to submit the Municipal Pension Reporting Program’s (formerly the Public Employee Retirement Commission) biennial report on the status of the commonwealth’s local government pension plans for your review and information. Similar to prior years, my department will be providing additional analysis of this data in early 2021. Pennsylvania’s pension plans for local government employees in total represent one of the largest retirement systems in the nation. Currently, there are more than 3,300 local government pension plans in Pennsylvania and the number continues to grow. Unfortunately, the struggle to properly fund the plans also continues to grow. Many municipalities face financial hardships as well as the reality of more retired members drawing from pension plans than active members contributing to the plans. This status report provides a snapshot of the condition of local government pension plans throughout the commonwealth. Reported data shows that 98 percent of the pension plans in Pennsylvania are considered small (fewer than 100 members).

    I ntegrated C ommunity ustainability S P lan GUIDE ICSP Options and Content Requirements April 2009 Department of Municipal Affairs Newfoundland and Labrador 1 ICSP OPTIONS As identified in the ICSP Framework, municipalities in Newfoundland and Labrador have 3 main options to choose from when developing an Integrated Community Sustainability Plan (ICSP). They are: 1. Municipal Plan ICSP – is the most costly and in-depth approach but would provide the plan with legislative authority. 2. Stand-Alone ICSP – is a possibly costly option but it gives the municipality complete control over the goals and objectives. 3. Collaborative ICSP – is the most cost effective option and has the added benefit of guaranteeing that where appropriate partners are working toward common goals. This guide is divided into three sections to provide specific details for each of the three ICSP options available. Note that the guide outlines the required content of an ICSP but it does not provide a step-by-step process . The specifics of the process must be developed by each municipality to address their individual situation. For the purposes of this guide the term “municipality” will include Inuit Community Governments. KEY COMPONENTS OF A SUCCESSFUL ICSP The ICSP is designed to be a comprehensive planning document that is constantly referred to and updated as necessary to keep it relevant and useful. By following the Ten Steps outlined in the Framework along with the specific aspects outlined in the appropriate section of this ICSP Guide, municipalities should be able to develop effective and efficient plans. Every ICSP, regardless of the option, should contain the following vital components : • Public participation in the decision making process.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT The dominant conceptual view of migration is a model of migration based on factors of push and pull; the former drives people away from their place of origin and the latter pulls them toward somewhere else. This study aims, through an examination of rural-urban migration from I-Lan county to Taipei city in Taiwan, to test this conceptual understanding of the migration process. Accordingly, it considers how the migratory process takes place and assesses its inpact on both rural and urban change as well as on the processes of economic development and urbanisation. Its general objective is to clarify the dominant view of push-pull factors being the cause of urban migration in developing countries and in Taiwan in particular.

  • The Past and the Prospect of Administrative Division of Georgia
    Miriam Jikia, LL.D.,* doi:10.5937/zrpfni1983163J Associate Professor, прегледни научни рад Faculty of Law and International Relations, Georgian Technical University, Tbilisi, Georgia UDK: 342.24(479.22) Рад примљен: 28.05.2019. Рад прихваћен: 25.09.2019. THE PAST AND THE PROSPECT OF ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISION OF GEORGIA Abstract: Historically speaking, Georgia never had an opportunity to inde- pendently determine the form of country’s administrative division. Due to some factors, including foreign and domestic policies, and socio-economic conditions, it was inevitable to divide the country into certain territorial units; however, Georgia has never been a strictly centralized state. The presented paper discusses the issue of administrative division in legal docu- ments created in independent Georgia. The issue is debated with reference to the first Constitution of the Democratic Republic of Georgia adopted in 1995, and the second amended Constitution adopted in 2004, and the third amended constitution adopted in 2010. The paper also reviews all the amendments of the Georgian Constitution introduced in the past 20 years, which have not brought any significant changes on the issue of adminis- trative division. The author analyses what may be the best administrative division for Georgia by considering two existing regional conflicts, and underlines the positive and negative aspects of Federalism and Unitarism. Key words: Administrative Division of State, Federalism, Autonomous Re- publics. 1. Introduction The administrative division of a country represents a system of political and legal relations between the central government and the governments of the territorial entities. According to the so-called “Doctrineet al., of Three Elements”, the organization of its authority on certain territory is the necessary precondition for the existence of each country (Gonashvili 2017:149).
