A Field Guide to Lehigh Valley Government
A practical guide to the municipalities, counties, school districts, meetings, agendas, records, and public-comment rules governing Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley.
Field notes
The guide breaks local participation into concrete tasks: watching a meeting, identifying the responsible body, finding its agenda, locating minutes, and understanding comment deadlines and time limits. Its current inventory covers 20 bodies, including city councils, township and borough boards, school boards, county legislative bodies, and a regional planning commission. The page also distinguishes the bodies it has not covered yet, including 50 municipalities and several authorities, making the scope of the project unusually legible.
