WisLine Teleconferences Address Planning, Elections & Other Issues Facing Towns

(12/19/09) Town officials are encouraged to take advantage of live WisLine teleconferences offered by the University of Wisconsin-Extension Local Government Center and cosponsored by WTA. They offer a convenient, low-cost was to learn from presenters who have expert knowledge on a range of topics. Live WisLine teleconference broadcasts originate from the Pyle Center in Madison and are distributed to county Extension offices throughout the state. Each year several WisLine series begin in the fall and continue through the following May or June. Four programs of special interest to town leaders are currently being offered:

• Conducting Local Elections  
• Current Issues Affecting Local Government Officials
• Local Land Use Planning and Zoning
• Open Government and Parliamentary Procedure

Information and copies of brochures may also be obtained from your local county University of Wisconsin-Extension office. Registration questions may be addressed to lgc@uwex.edu, or you may call (608) 262-9961. WisLine programs are also archived for later use. If you have never attended a Local Government Center WisLine program, learn more about them at the All About WisLines page.
