Town Government Educational Programs
The Fountain Hills Cultural and Civic Association strives to keep Fountain Hills citizens informed about the
Town Government and associated functions. It has either sponsored or cosponsored five Town Hall events
over the years. Most recently we cosponsored a Youth Visioning Institute and two Town Hall events in
conjunction with the Town of Fountain Hills Citizen Driven Strategic Planning effort. In addition we help to
register 18 year old voters in conjunction with the high school. The Civic Affairs chairman serves on the
Technical Advisory Committee that is leading and coordinating the strategic planning effort. In the past five
years we conducted two educational forums known as “Our Town”. These forums were led by the Mayor
and Town Manager as well as key town staff heads of Parks and Recreation, Public Works, Planning and
Zoning, Town Finances, Municipal Court, Fire Department and Law Enforcement. Representatives from the
Sanitary District and Chaparral City Water also participated.

Town Hall 2 was a key event in our year-long citizen-driven strategic planning process. Nearly 200
residents participated in the session held on August 13, to determine which key principles and initiatives
would guide the growth and development of Fountain Hills. The construction of a multi-generational
aquatic facility and strengthening the community's small town identity were among the initiatives many
participants wanted to pursue in the first implementation phase (1- 3 years).
