Steve Schultz Speaks on Ethics in Government

Recently, Steve Schultz addressed the Michigan Municipal Treasurers Association's annual Institute on the topic of Ethics in Local Government. The half-day session in Mount Pleasant on April 23, 2012, examined both the legal underpinnings of ethical conduct and the practical problems faced by municipal officials in dealing with unethical conduct. The session kicked off the four day Institute, which was attended by city and township Treasurers and Deputy Treasurers around the state.
