Ours is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
While much media and public attention is focused on the federal government, local government is often overlooked. And yet, local government is where citizens can most easily and directly make a difference.
The matters handled by local governments Will a Costco be built in your neighborhood? Will your public library be open in the midst of a pandemic? Will a park in your town be preserved? have the most impact on our everyday lives.
The Enterprise is committed to covering local government and, in the case of the Helderberg Hilltowns, is the only media organization that regularly does so.
