The New Jersey State League of Municipalities Annual ConferenceNew Jersey Planning OfficialsAtlantic City, NJ For 96 years, local officials have gathered annually in the pursuit of good local government. The three-day Annual Conference remains a critical mainstay in the portfolio of services provided by the League. By serving 18,000 people, it is the single largest local government event in the United States. Offering hundreds of exhibits showing products and services to aid municipalities, it is a central point for learning what is out there to meet local governments' needs.
Pre-Registration, at just $50, is the most affordable way for municipal officials to gain new solutions to both the perennial issues and the changing challenges. Some of the features of this year's conference will be:
-80 League Educational sessions and more than 50 additional sessions produced by affiliated municipal professional associations.
-Training for newly elected governing body members.
-Several sessions focused on ethics training. New technical skills and new technologies creating new efficiencies.
-information on Affordable housing; planning; grants and understanding initiatives coming from State government.
The conference is also a chance to acknowledge local officials' dedication to public service and the work of their colleagues in municipal government across the state.
The Annual Conference provides all these opportunities while continuing to charge the lowest registration rate of any municipal league in the country.
