This Citizens' Academy will be fun and interactive with new sessions and curriculum.
The class meets once a week for seven weeks and gives citizens the opportunity to learn more about local government and take ownership of their community. The Citizens' Academy also helps citizens understand what goes on behind the scenes to provide services to residents. Citizens learn what City departments do and how they do it.
