Research Q of the Week: City Funds, Drones, Social Media—Top 5 from 2015 (1/7/15)

Question: Out of curiosity, what were the most popular Research Question of the Week posts on The City Spot blog in 2015?

Answer: That is a great question! League staff work hard to provide useful and cutting-edge information to Minnesota cities in a variety of formats—including this blog. In reviewing Research Question of the Week posts over the last year, the most popular questions had a few common themes around city employees and use of city funds, as well as hot topics such as drones and social media.

To keep up-to-date on what other city staff and city officials have found interesting, check out the top five blog topics from 2015:

1.    Can a City Employee Work on a Public Holiday?
2.    Breaks for City Employees
3.    Drones and Minnesota Cities
4.    Nonprofit Donation Decisions
5.    Posting Lost Dog Info on Facebook

As 2015 comes to a close, we want to take a moment and thank you for all you do for cities.  Happy holidays!
