It’s time for the LPIN to Level Up!
The LPIN 2021 convention will be held March 26th – 28th in Fishers, IN at the Forum Event Center. The focus of this year’s convention will be attendee experience, education, and training.
Tentative Schedule: (subject to change)
Friday Night: Hyatt House Fishers
Friday Night will feature a panel discussion / Q&A about municipal budgeting. TIF Financing, Reverting Funds, Non-Reverting Funds, what money can be spent on what from which funds. This is critical information for anyone planning to run for office or wants to keep tabs on what their local governments are up to. This event will be open to non-members through a separate ticketing system.
Following that panel discussion, we intend to have a Q&A panel with current LPIN leadership and anyone running for leadership positions.
