What Patron Status is Not

Patron Status categories in the Maine Municipal Association does not afford the patron a vote or formal involvement in the Association’s policy development or adoption process. Patrons cannot avail themselves of the technical support or group purchasing services of MMA. This category is intended for those interested primarily in the informational and training aspects of the Association or providing general support to municipal interests.
