The Michigan Municipal League and our partners at Plante Moran are coordinating to gather data from municipalities across Michigan on the workplace and financial impacts from the coronavirus pandemic and how local governments are reacting.<\/p>\n

Information that is gathered from these survey responses will help to provide benchmarks for municipalities to compare themselves against and offer valuable insights into the operational and fiscal impacts of the current crisis that we will be able to use with state and federal policy makers as legislative and budgetary reactions are considered.<\/p>\n

This survey is open to all local government officials and the League encourages our members to participate so that we can be prepared when advocating on your behalf.<\/p>\n

Follow this link to participate in the survey.<\/a> <\/strong>Thank you for your help!<\/p>\n
