10:00 a.m. A Look at The Other Side of Shared Services
Presented by Daniel Bromberg, Ph.D.
Shared Services are increasingly becoming a common way for
municipalities to gain efficiencies and cut costs. That said, there is little
evidence of sweeping performance increases. This presentation will give
a broad overview of the concept of shared services and then zoom in on
few case specific examples. The second half of the discussion will ask for
attendees to actively engage with one another to determine best
opportunities for utilizing these agreements in the future of their towns
and cities. We will also hear from Laconia City Manager, Scott Myers and
Belmont Town Administrator Jean Beaudin about their recent agreement
to share the Laconia Fire Administration and Butch Burbank about
Lincoln’s relationship with the Town of Woodstock.
Daniel Bromberg is an Assistant Professor of Public Administration and
the MPA Director at the University of New Hampshire. His research
Interests include government procurement, performance management,
and organizational accountability. He holds a Ph.D. from the School of
Public Affairs and Administration at Rutgers-Newark.

THURSDAY AFTERNOON GROUP ACTIVITY
Compliments of MMANH for conference registrants
Please indicate your 1st choice:
______Tree Top Canopy Tour
This is a true “treetop” canopy tour and the fist in New England. You’ll zip on 6 separate zip lines ranging from 250-1,00 feet
long and travel through the canopy up to the 80’ above the forest floor. This in the perfect course for first time zippers or
families with smaller children.
______Off-Road Adventure Tour
Buckle Up and Hold On, as the license plates dictate, because you’re in for an off-road thrill like no other in New England. Scale
to the top of Barron Mountain for awesome views in this low-speed roller coaster ride. With every season you encounter a
different tour: Summer is great weather and an open air convertible top. Fall is spectacular foliage seen from above with
occasional moose, deer & turkeys along the trail. Winter displays the extreme off-road capabilities of these 6-wheel drive Swiss
army transport vehicles call Pinzgauers. Spring is mud season (do we have to say more). Pinzgauers have modified seating to
accommodate 11 guests (one is shotgun) in blue bucket seats with lap belts. We padded the overhead cages and added a kickin’
stereo system with mikes for the guides to entertain you on your journey. This tour last 1-1.5 hours.
Continued on reverse.
