ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY
The Program for Local Government Education (PLGE) at Washington State University was established in April 1989, assisted by a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Its purpose was to increase educational support for local elected and government officials in smaller jurisdictions in the State of Washington. The two principal means sought by PLGE were training opportunities for local government officials in the areas of leadership strategies, administration and decision making and issue analyses concerning problems faced by smaller local government jurisdictions. PLGE formalized a working relationship between Washington State University (Cooperative Extension and Division of Governmental Studies and Services) and the three principal local government associations: the Association of Washington Cities, the Washington Association of County Officials and the Washington State Association of Counties. The primary decision-making body of the PLGE was the Policy Council, composed of eight local government representatives, three association staff and three WSU faculty.
ARRANGEMENT AND DESCRIPTION
The records of PLGE are divided in to nine separate series: I. Correspondence, II. Press Releases (1989 Grant) and Lessons Learned, III. Second-Order Change, IV. Criteria for Demonstration Site Selection - Round Two, V. Round One Demonstration Sites (1990-1991), VI. Round Two Demonstration Sites - Multi-jurisdictional, VII. PLGE Policy Council, VIII. Work Plan Priorities - Applied Research, and IX. W.K. Kellogg Foundation Proposals, Updates, Reports. The records range from 1988 to 1994. Series 5-9 follow a topical outline breakdown. All of the files remain in the original order as received by the University Archives.
