Title
Discuss Applications For The Leadership Metrocrest Program.
Body
BACKGROUND:
The Metrocrest Chamber of Commerce is accepting applications for the next Leadership Metrocrest class. The total cost of the program is $1,000 for Chamber members and $1,200 for non-members. As in years past, the City has budgeted two $500 scholarships for two Carrollton residents who wish to participate in the program. The City also budgets the full tuition cost for a councilmember or City staff member.
Attached are the scholarship applications submitted by residents. Assistant Fire Chief Ricky Vaughn and Assistant Police Chief Kevin McCoy also applied for the program.
The Chamber has recently revised their program policy and will now accept up to four participants from a single organization in a program year. An organization may nominate more, but only four participants will be selected.
