The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI)—a broad field aimed at creating intelligent machines capable of performing tasks typically requiring human intelligence—has transformed various sectors of the economy, and local government is no exception. From automated customer service chatbots to predictive maintenance of infrastructure, AI has the potential to transform the way local governments operate and serve their constituents. As local governments navigate the implementation and use of AI in government operations, municipal officials must understand both the opportunities and risks.

Doing Due Process Right – Practical Tips for Municipal Leaders (Event Recap)
Presented by Sam Light, CIRSA General Counsel
If you were unable to attend “Doing Due Process Right – Practical Tips for Municipal Leaders,” don’t worry! The training presentation can now be located on the CIRSASafety YouTube channel.
Municipal leaders have this unique, cherished power in local government to make certain decisions at the local level that affect peoples’ land use, licensing, and other “property rights.” Given the significant risks in this area, CIRSA provides Quasi-Judicial training to focus on “suggestions for success” and best practices for quasi-judicial decision-makers, which in turn will reduce risk for your City or Town and you individually.
