Overview of the Urban Towns Committee

The Urban Towns Committee (UTC) is an integral part of the Wisconsin Towns Association (WTA). Its fundamental goal is to achieve more equitable treatment of towns facing urban and recreational land use pressures. It also promotes a better understanding of the many contributions town governments make to Wisconsin. The UTC was created in 1988 by the WTA Board. It has about 100 members and conducts membership meetings in various locations around the state.

The UTC's specific objectives are to: Provide mutual assistance among urban and urbanizing towns throughout the state; Recommend and advocate policy positions to the WTA Board; Offer training and education to urban town officials; Create a public forum for the exchange of information of concern to urban and urbanizing towns; and Advise the WTA Board about developments of concern to member towns.
