The League of Women Voters of Northwest Wayne County supports a local governmental structure which encourages informed citizen participation at the various levels of the political process. We believe local government should be comprehensible to the voters, with clearly delineated lines of authority so that responsibility can be easily pinpointed.  Further, we believe local government should encourage use of best management techniques to ensure efficiency and economy of operation, including the employment of competent personnel in elected, appointed or civil service positions.
