April 2008

Welcome to the April issue of LGM online – ILM’s monthly e-magazine especially for members of the Faculty of Local Government Managers. It’s full of topical news and features specially selected for you – but now, instead of quarterly, you’ll receive it every month, so you can keep up-to-date with all the latest developments in local government.

This month, we take a look at the rising cost to councils of repairing the UK’s increasingly dug-up roads, and report on the growing preference for chopping down perfectly healthy trees. Plus, read the latest news from the world of local government in our dedicated news area.

Remember, LGM online is exclusively for members of ILM’s Faculty of Local Government Managers, so have your username and password handy.
