Good Government

We Can All Agree on Good Government

A public website where residents can find the names and contact information of the Trustee and Board members, the meeting calendar, agendas, minutes, the budget, and the annual report.
A published calendar of regularly scheduled meetings, set well in advance, so that the public can make plans to attend in person or to watch online.
Meetings that are livestreamed and posted to YouTube, with the agenda and minutes alongside, so that people who cannot be there in person can still see what happened.
Reports filed on time — the annual financial report, the personnel report, the budget, and every other filing the state requires, submitted complete and by the deadline, every year.
Transparent budgeting and spending, with no township money spent except as the Board has duly appropriated it.
Clean audits, with the State Board of Accounts finding nothing to correct.
Open books, with public records freely available to the public, without cost or complaint.
Employees and contractors held to the highest ethical standards, with clear written policies and disclosures.
