“How to Run and Pass a Public Safety Millage”
At the MACP Summer Conference
Boyne Highlands, June 23-27

Municipal entities have decimated budgets due to the economy, cuts in revenue sharing, and the housing value declines. Many law enforcement departments have been drastically reduced in size. A Public Safety millage is the only way many of entities can support their departments to make sure they survive.

Because this is such an important subject, the Michigan Association of Chiefs of Police is offering any full conference registered member to bring their mayor, city manager, finance director, or any other city official to the conference for only $50.00. Register today!
