Palmdale Partners Academy


March 6 – May 1, 2008

Participants are currently being recruited for the Spring 2008 Session of the Palmdale Partners Academy. The Academy is designed to present citizens with a first-hand look at City operations and services. Participants will interact with City staff and learn the challenges facing municipal governments as well as gain insight into the City’s future goals and objectives. Classes will be held on consecutive Thursdays from 7:00 – 9:30 pm.

Interested persons should submit their application as soon as possible as participation is limited. Citizens unable to commit to all the classes are asked to apply for future sessions. Priority will be given to residents of Palmdale.

For more information, contact Trish Jones at 661/267-5400.
