At the request of Duluth’s City Manager, the Duluth City Council recently agreed to fund the hiring of Town Green Liaisons to assist with monitoring student after-school activity on and around the Town Green.

The city anticipates the liaisons will work in groups of two for approximately four-hour periods on an as-needed basis.

The city is allocating $60,000 this fiscal year to hire the liaisons. $55,500 will cover part-time wages and $4,500 will cover FICA taxes.
