2019 is coming to a close, and the time to verify the municipal contact information for each city and town in South Carolina is here.
Each year, the Municipal Association of SC asks all municipalities to review, update and verify this information through the Municipal Information Dashboard. Doing so benefits cities and towns by making sure that the Association can communicate with members effectively on several topics:
- training opportunities from the affiliate organizations and Risk Management Services;
- registration information for meetings, conferences and workshops, including the Association's Annual Meeting and Hometown Legislative Action Day; and
- updates on legislative action and legal issues critical to local government.
The annual directory of the state's 271 municipalities includes contact information for each city and town, the specifications for each form of government, the time of council meetings and the names of elected officials and certain staff. The directory is available in print and online.
Updating the information
To help maintain data integrity, the Association allows only the municipal clerk of each city or town, or the clerk's designee, to handle the update on the Municipal Information Dashboard. The deadline to update is November 20.
For assistance, or to make a new designation for the person to handle the update, contact Ashleigh Hair at ahair@masc.sc or 803.933.1288.
