 Deadline Approaching: Submit a Legislative Policy Proposal and Create Change

Time is almost up for municipalities to submit proposed legislative policies to NHMA to be considered as part of the legislative policy process.  If there is a law affecting municipal government that you think needs to be fixed, or if you have an idea for how the functions of local government might be improved through legislation, this is your opportunity to make a change.

Use the Legislative Policy Proposal Form to submit a proposal for consideration. The deadline for submitting proposals is April 15, although earlier submission is encouraged. Please follow the instructions on the form for submitting your proposal.
