SUPPORTING EXCELLENCE IN MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT

This year's NCLM Regional Legislative Updates will discuss legislative priorities for 2009 and offer a chance to hear from you. With travel budgets tightened, we have scheduled more meetings to cut down on your travel time. We have also eliminated a registration fee. This year's updates will be held in 10 locations across the state in January. We also ask that you invite and encourage your legislators to attend these important meetings, where we wil discus decreasing revenues, spending cuts, infrastructure needs and more.

In response to the uncertainty of the current economic situation, your League has gathered information to help municipal officials better understand how economic conditions may affect your fiscal situation during the current and next fiscal year. We are providing this information in the form of answers to questions that the League staff has received from our members.

N.C. will expand its population by 6 million people in the next 15 years. Communities have a choice: They can plan for what will happen, or deal with it when it hits their footsteps. Good Growth: Chance or Choice? is a one-day, regional LeaderShop offered by the Local Elected Leaders Academy (LELA) to raise awareness of the complex issues surrounding growth. These workshops will be held in four locations across the state, and will give you the experience to face these growth problems head-on in these turbulent times.
