So, You Think You Know the Municipality Authorities Act?
The Municipality Authorities Act ("MAA") is the most referred to source of information regarding the day-to-day operations and management of Pennsylvania municipal authorities. However, often, the answer to a question regarding a municipal authority's operations or management may not be readily clear from a cursory review of the MAA.
Also, certain issues municipal authorities deal with on a regular basis are not addressed by the MAA. The purpose of the webinar will be to address issues in the MAA and a few related laws, such as reorganization, board member appointments, municipal authority rules/regulations, and fiscal matters.
This session will:
-
Provide insight on day-to-day operation and management issues that are addressed by the MAA and those that are addressed by other statutes
-
Cover the reorganization process (including board appointments - when they can be made, when terms expire, etc.)
-
Discuss voting conflicts and proper procedure for board members
-
Address the proper scope of municipal authority rules and regulations
-
Explore the proper conduct of meetings and how to avoid problems that often arise in connection with such meetings
-
Analyze conflict issues for board members
Who should attend?
Municipal authority managers, staff, solicitors, and board members - anyone that is involved in municipal authority operations or management from an administrative, legal, or policy perspective.
