Public Use of Township Property and Facilities
Because a township is “the government,” the relationship status for a township and its property is complicated. Who “owns” township property? Does “publicly owned” mean “open to the public?” Who decides how a township’s property will or will not be used or accessed?
In this one-hour webinar, MTA Staff Attorney Catherine Mullhaupt walks us through the ins and outs of Public Use of Township Property and Facilities. Explore the legal issues regarding township real estate, facilities and equipment and get a better understanding of the board’s role and responsibilities, including when to involve the township’s attorney or other consultants.
