| This Handbook has been prepared for both new and re-elected councillors/mayors/
chairs/community board members. The role of leading and representing your
community requires an understanding of the principles, legislation, history and role of
local government - as well as your own commitment to making a difference. This
Handbook provides the basis of the "theory" of local government and all that underpins
it, and will assist you to improve your understanding of your position and to provide a
framework for your expectations. |
