CMAL Study of County Governance

3/3/2022

0 Comments

 
LWV ABC Program held on February 14 via Zoom:
CMAL has completed its study of county government research regarding the accountability, visibility and accessibility of county government in the metro area, as well as the relation between county government and other levels of government.  The purpose of the study is to update CMAL's position on county government in the metropolitan area. 
LWV ABC Vice-president Julie Trude presented the report and the consensus questions  developed by the study committee.  LWV ABC members then voted on the questions.    Our votes will be tallied, along with the consensus statements responses of all local Leagues who are members of CMAL, and will determine CMAL's position on county government in the metropolitan area.   This decision will be made at the May 14 Annual Meeting of CMAL.
The County Government Study by the Council of Metropolitan Area Leagues (CMAL) Report is available here for viewing prior to the meeting.
