Michigan Municipal League
In September 1899 Michigan mayors—led by William Baum Sr. of Saginaw, and George Perry of Grand Rapids—formed the Michigan Municipal League in Grand Rapids, to help local governments deal with increased demands from population growth and new technology. By joining forces through the league, municipalities are able to assist each other by sharing information and providing educational programs and publications aimed at effective local government.
