Board of Trustees

The role of the Board of Trustees is to provide leadership and governance for MI-AWWA. Board members are entrusted with three duties: the duty of care, the duty of loyalty, and the duty of obedience.

Board Meetings are held once each quarter.  Learn about roles and responsibilities here.
