Waveland goes to Mississippi Municipal League Conference
​This past month Mayor Mike Smith, Alderman Charlie Piazza and I attended the 86th Annual Mississippi Municipal League Conference in Biloxi. The MML Conference has over 1,500 attendees and is a great opportunity for public officials to get professional training and to network with other public officials from all over Mississippi.
I am proud to report that Mayor Smith was able to satisfy the graduation requirement for the basic level of the Certified Municipal Official (CMO) program. |
What's Up, Waveland
|
Although the certification course is voluntary, receipt of the designation of Certified Municipal Official requires completion of core courses: Municipal Organization, Municipal Law, Municipal Finance, Municipal Land Use and Community Development. The CMO program provides the participants training to become more effective leaders for Waveland.
Established in 1931, MML represents 295 city, town, and village governments in Mississippi. The mission of the MML is helping cities and towns excel through training, lobbying at the state and federal level, and providing resources and networking opportunities with state, federal and private entities.

The city of Waveland will be hosting a Touch-a-Truck Community Awareness event on Saturday, August 17 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Coleman Avenue. This event will feature police cars, fire trucks, tractors and many other unique machines for kids to explore. The event will be free to attend, and food and drink will be available for purchase.
