The LGA Lyceum has been launched! The Lyceum is a forum to create a dialogue on current issues from the business, government, civic, and academic sectors. This is a chance to make your voices heard and to give your opinions on topics relating to intergovernmental cooperation, resource management, sustainable development and planning, and a variety of other topics in local government!

The Local Government Academy Podcasts are now available, where you can listen to sound clips and view slideshows from different LGA programs! The first group of podcasts from the 2007 Road to Excellence Conference features presentations on adapting governance for Clean Water Act compliance by John Schombert of 3 Rivers Wet Weather, Keynote Speaker Dr. Bruce Stiftel, and Allegheny County Chief Executive Dan Onorato. Subscribe to our RSS feed for the latest podcasts from LGA programs and interviews with local government experts in the region, and download our podcasts to your iPod so that you can listen to them anywhere.


Help inform LGA of current issues in your municipality by taking the latest local government poll.  Your input is appreciated.
