Washtenaw County Regional Quality of Life Initiative (pdf)In September and October 2003, a group
of elected officials and staff convened to develop the organizational design
of an initiative to maintain and enhance the quality of life in the
Washtenaw area. This group identified key issues on which to begin working,
identified the elements of quality of life that their constituents most
value, and developed a charter describing the groups purpose, background,
core principles, structure, process elements, duration, and
dissolution. About UsLeaders from each local unit of government of the Washtenaw Metro Alliance have come together to protect our quality of life by anticipating issues before they become problems, to enhance our quality of life by identifying opportunities to maintain our sense of place through commitment to leadership and action. 2009 Meeting Schedule
