Please note: This form should be completed by the primary contact for each member municipality, governmental unit, or business.
Municipalities and other governmental units: Primary contacts are the individual who currently holds a position assigned primary responsibility for the personnel administration of the municipality or governmental unit. Membership belongs to the governmental unit and will therefore remain with the position, not the individual.
Primary contacts in municipalities and other governmental units are eligible to select one associate contact in their administration. Associates receive all MMHR communications and serve as a secondary point of contact.
Business partners: Primary contacts are determined internally by the business applying for membership. Business partners are not eligible to add an associate contact.
Other members: Primary contacts for student memberships and honorary memberships are approved on a case-by-case basis by the MMHR Board. Student and honorary members are not eligible to add an associate contact.
As stated in the MMHR bylaws, access to the MMHR listserv and social media groups is reserved for our primary municipal members and other governmental unit members only. Business partners, students, and honorary members are not permitted access. Members in transition may be allowed to continue their access for a limited period on a case-by-case basis.
