Our Home, Our Decisions
The Texas Municipal League’s (TML) “Our Home, Our Decisions” campaign is ready to roll! The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness about the State of Texas eroding the ability of Texans to have a voice in developing local solutions to local problems that affect their neighborhoods and their communities.
The League has developed informational materials for city officials to use in meetings with local groups and organizations. While the materials are suitable for any public use, they will likely be of greater interest to city residents who are already actively engaged in civic affairs through membership in business, professional, social, charitable, and neighborhood organizations and individuals who serve on city boards and commissions.
Components
The first components of “Our Home, Our Decisions” are now available for download and use by TML member cities. They are:
- Our Home, Our Decisions logo
- A three-minute video production
- Property tax video
- A PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) that can be customized by cities for local presentations
- A PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) with video
- Our Home, Our Decisions PPT Example (Roanoke)
- Our Home, Our Decisions PPT Example (Coppell)
- A two-sided handout (PDF)
- Tips (PDF)
The video production can be used as an introduction to the slide presentation, and the handout can be photocopied and distributed to attendees. The components, as well as a document with tips on how to use them are available.
Additional Information
Please feel free to modify all or parts of the materials to suit your city’s needs. If you have questions about the materials or want additional advice on how to use them, email Legislation.
