CITY OF HARPER WOODS
MANAGEMENT’S MISSION STATEMENT
We firmly believe in Philosopher John Locke’s Social Contract Theory that . . .
"Government exists for the benefit of the
governed not those governing"
That is. . .
"The City of Harper Woods exists not to serve
those who are employed here but for the
residents who have placed us here to serve"
WE BELIEVE . . .
* The City’s business is service to our community
* That our service to the community should be helpful, caring and responsive
* That the success of the City organization is dependent on teamwork, mutual respect and commitment to the following values:
~Participation by all segments of the community
~Effective Communication within and among our constituents
~Integrity in everything we do
~Innovation in meeting the present and future needs of the City
~Accountability to our elected officials and the Trust our citizens have placed in them
~Responsibility for the services entrusted to us
~Pride in what we do, always striving to serve in the best interest of the community as a whole
We Believe in our Dedication to Public Service
