(Pottawattamie County, Iowa) Pottawattamie County is continuing a commitment to make communication with its residents a top priority by hosting an upcoming town hall meeting in Oakland.
The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November 9th, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The informational discussion will occur inside the Oakland Community Center at 614 Dr. Van Zee Road, with no formal deliberation or action from the Board of Supervisors. Pottawattamie County held a similar forum in April, allowing residents to hear from County leaders about the latest developments.
“Our weekly meetings are open to the public, but we understand some residents aren’t able to attend meetings on Tuesday mornings,” said County Supervisor Susan Miller. “We hope people stay connected with us through our website and social media platforms, but it’s important we have avenues to present information directly to our residents as well,” said Miller. “That’s a key piece in our communication strategies.”
PowerPoint slides are expected to accompany brief presentations by leaders of several County departments during the meeting before concluding with a question-and-answer forum with those in attendance.
“We’re here to serve the more than 93,000 county residents,” said Miller. “There are great things taking place in our communities, and we want to ensure we continue to provide ways for people to stay informed and celebrate Pottawattamie County as a great place to work, live, and play.”
