Do you ever wonder where the lines of authority are drawn between the city, the county, and the school district? Do you know what responsibilities the City Administrator and City Council have? How is our city financed and what does it spend money on? The League of Women Voters wants your committed active participation on issues concerning rights, duties, and qualities of life within your community. But, you might want to know more before you try to effect change. Please join us for the first in our “Get to Know Your Local Government” series. On Thursday, March 18, we’ll focus on Rochester city government. We will welcome guest speakers:
- Alison Zelms - City Administrator
- Brooke Carlson - City Council President
- Nick Campion - City Council Member, 3rd Ward
- Sarah Strauss - Rochester-Olmsted Youth Commission Member
Each will give an overview or discuss their work in city government on behalf of citizens, including case studies. They will then collectively take questions from our audience.
