ANNUAL TOWN MEETING APRIL 8, 2025
Would you like to add a specific agenda item for this year’s Town Meeting?
Items to the Town Meeting Agenda can be considered as long as the petition is made by a group of fifteen or more registered voters in the township and submit such items to the township board for consideration by March 1, 2025. However, the agenda items must be relevant to the powers granted to the electors under the Township Code before they may be considered for placement in the annual town meeting agenda.
Joliet Township has prepared a submittal form that can be printed and completed by residents to formally submit their proposed agenda items.
