The League of Women Voters supports the improvement of regional cooperation in the delivery of local government services within Johnson County.
Position In Brief:
The current mechanisms in place to aid the cooperation and coordination of intergovernmental and regional issues are neither adequate nor adequately utilized.
Elected officials and citizens need to
1) make better use of the mechanisms
available, and
2) find other avenues to pursue greater and more effective intergovernmental coordination.
The League will support measures that meet this goal including encouraging and participating in the establishment of a Charter Commission for Johnson County which would include representatives of the larger, contiguous cities.
