In every local government organization, staff members write staff reports to present important information and inform decisions of the legislative body. These staff reports can cover any number of topics, from purchasing playground equipment to development projects. Mastering the Art: A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing a Quality Staff Report for Local Government is a resource guide for local government professionals. This book will simplify the process of learning how to write a staff report and should be a reference manual that all government professionals keep on-hand throughout their careers.
