Title
Presentation of 2017 Citizens Leadership Academy Participants.
Body
The 2017 Citizens Leadership Academy has been completed. We began with 23 participants and about 18 were able to attend a majority of sessions. The final session, held on Saturday, April 8th, included a mock city council meeting for the City of Mock. Participants held various positions, such as Mayor, Councilmember, City Manager, City Attorney, etc. They were provided with a packet and real Staff members helped them prepare. I was quite impressed with their level of understanding and the process they followed.
Once again, City Staff willing and enthusiastically participated in this program. I truly appreciate the assistance they provided and this Academy would not have been a success without them.
Kevin Wood, Mayor of the City of Mock, will address the Lee's Summit Mayor and City Council. The participants will be provided with a certificate of participation.
