As Delhi
Township's
first
Certified
Municipal
Clerk,
Evan
Hope is
committed
to
providing
his
constituents
and the
Township
with the
best
possible
service.
Over the
past 10
years
Evan
Hope
has
continually
provided
more
services
but with
a
smaller
staff
than
when he
first
became
clerk.
How
often do
you hear
of
government
tightening
it's
belt?
While
Evan
Hope
has been
Clerk, he
has
found
over
$200,000
in
savings
from his
budgets.
The
Clerk's
office
budget
is
actually
20% less
today
than it
was a
few
years
ago.
Evan
Hope
helped
implement
"performance
based"
budgeting
to make
your tax
dollars
work
best for
you. Performance Based Budgeting
directly
correlates
the
money being asked for to the goals and
objectives set forth by the Township Board.
Delhi
Township
has
grown
and
changed
in the
10 years
since
Evan
first
became
Clerk,
and
under
his
leadership,
the
Clerk's
office
has led
the
township
in
implementing
technological
advances.
Evan
Hope put
into
place a
document-imaging
system
that
puts
township
records
at
employees'
fingertips,
which
saves
time and
money.
He also
introduced
the
township
website,
which he
designed
and
continues
to
maintain.
This
valued
public
resource
makes
information
about
township
services
easy to
access.
Most
recently,
Evan
Hope
introduced
"DelHi
Neighbor!",
a
quarterly
Township
newsletter
to help
keep
residents
informed
of
what's
happening
in the
Township.
