Michigan Local Government Management Association

 

 

"It happened that early in 1927 L.P. Cookingham, Village Manager of Clawson, and City Manager William A. Jones, of Huntington Woods, met in a restaurant in Royal Oak; and it happened that City Manager R. J. Whitney, of Royal Oak, entered the restaurant and joined the group.  There the Association started. . . ."
