Town - Village - School Collaborative Compact

COLLABORATIVE COMPACT 2018

On June 14, 2018, Town Board members Kevin Beckford, Kate Munzinger and Matt O’Connor joined Supervisor Bill Smith at the annual joint workshop of the Town Board, School Board and Village Board, where they reviewed and signed the Collaborative Leadership Compact.

The Compact confirms a collaborative partnership unique to Pittsford. The Supervisor, Mayor and School Superintendent meet together in regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year, with a joint workshop of the three boards every summer. The Compact has been signed by Board members of the three entities each year since 2003. It outlines the group’s ongoing commitment to open and clear communication, sharing resources and working together for the benefit of all Pittsford residents.

BACKGROUND

In 2003, the leaders of the Town, Village and School District formalized their practices and intentions regarding cooperation among the municipalities by entering into a written Collaborative Compact for the first time. Preceded by a long history of cooperation on various projects, the Leadership Team of the School Superintendent, Village Mayor and Town Supervisor was created to provide a formal and ongoing forum to facilitate and increase collaboration and information sharing among the Town, the Village and the School District. The Compact is reviewed and renewed each year.
