Observer Corps

The League’s Observer Corps functions as the eyes and ears of the League, observing public meetings and reporting back to the League. League action might result from some of these observations. Evanston’s Observer Corps consists of 13 members, who observe the City Council, the Rules Committee and the standing committees (Administration and Public Works, Planning and Development, Human Services.)

On May 19, 2009, the Local Government Committee made a presentation at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the League of Women Voters of Evanston entitled "All You Ever Wanted to Know About Evanston City Government....But Didn't Know to Ask." A summary of their presentation is now available.
