EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
As the chief policymaking body of the League, the executive committee serves as a sort of “convention in continuous session,” adopting policies for the organization in between annual meetings and directing the work of the executive director, who hires and supervises the staff.

Message from our President
Welcome to the Arkansas Municipal League website!
If you want to lead your community “to the best of your ability,” this is a great place to start. It’s full of critical information and tools to help you, all backed by the best league staff in the country. Be sure you reach out to them with any questions you may have, and I guarantee you’ll get the answers and advice that you need.
I am excited and humbled to serve as President of this organization and am grateful to those who have come before me. The fruits of their labor have helped set the standard for how municipal leagues should operate and serve, and I will do my absolute best to continue that work during my tenure.
It has been a pleasure getting to know so many elected officials and others in municipal government through my affiliation with the League. I look forward to seeing many of you in person at our events throughout the year. Thanks for what you do each and every day.
For greater cities, and a greater state,
Jonas Anderson, Mayor, Cave City, AR
President, Arkansas Municipal League
