Thank You for Your Initial Opinion about Home Rule 

Over the last few weeks we asked residents in Erie to complete a short survey about your opinion on the possible change in governing status to Home Rule. There were 1,531 residents who agreed to take the survey and share their thoughts about this topic. Sharing your input and comments about all topics in the community is incredibly important to assure the priorities at the Town government match those of its residents. Results of the survey will be shared with the Board of Trustees at their Regular Meeting on Feb. 8. Check www.erieco.gov/Calendar for a link to the meeting and agenda for the timing of this item.
