COUNTY ASSOCIATIONS


What is a County-level Municipal Clerk's Association?
  A county municipal clerks' association is an organization of clerks, deputy clerks and assistant clerks from one or two counties who meet several times a year for professional development, networking and educational activities.  Associations are organized and administered by the municipal clerks in each county.  The Maine Town and City Clerks' Association serves as a resource for the county association, but each county association functions independently from MTCCA.

What is a typical meeting like?  Most meetings are held in the evening with a dinner, followed by a business meeting and an educational presentation, featuring speakers on a variety of topics pertaining to the professional work of municipal clerks.  Clerk here to view suggested meeting topics for county associations.

How do I get Involved?  If your county does not have a group established and you would like to become involved in helping starting one, please contact MTCCA First Vice President Sue Mooney at 767-7601.
