Carlisle/Wortman Associates’ planners routinely train officials around Michigan, both for the Michigan Municipal League (MML) and for specific communities. In February, John Enos taught roles and responsibilities to planning commissioners in Ida Township and he, Chris Atkins and Dave Scurto did MML weekenders on role and responsibilities and economic development.In March, Laura Kreps was in front of MML members from the Grass Lake area with site plan reviews. Roles and responsibilities will be the topic in April for Ben Carlisle in New Buffalo and in May for John with the Ohio chapters of the American Planning Association.“Carlisle Wortman has been assisting with League trainings for several years now,” said Kelly Warren, director of affiliate engagement for the Michigan Municipal League. “They are always a pleasure to work with and they thoroughly understand the challenges and needs of our elected and appointed officials….They are always well-prepared and tailor each course for the individual community and officials.”
