Now You Know - Prudent Policies

Now You Know: Prudent Policies

Were you handed a nice set of township policies when you began your career as a township official? Is your township prepared to provide them to incoming officials? 

Most people serve their township because they want to give back to their community. One of the best ways to do that is to leave the township better than you found it by setting up future leaders for success. Clearly defined township policies ensure incoming officials understand how (and why!) things work the way they do. What better way to leave a legacy in your township than establishing effective policies and procedures.

In this one-hour webinar, MTA’s Member Information Services Director Mike Selden offers insights into township policies from what’s most important to the true value in providing them for incoming officials, whenever the transition may be.
