Abstract
This article presents issues related to assessment of the efficiency of municipal services from the point of view of both theories of efficiency available in literature and the specific features of municipal services. Many attributes of municipal services differ from those of other services. Therefore, to consider municipal services from the perspective of efficiency, the need to adopt separate assessment criteria arises. This article aims to present the prevailing trends in research regarding the assessment of the efficiency of municipal services within the context of theoretical considerations available in economic literature.
