An example of a Town Initiative.
Town Initiatives are a feature introduced in the Welcome amiibo update (or version 1.4) for New Leaf. They are tasks that are displayed on the player's TPC. Each week, the player will receive a total of four town initiatives: two daily initiatives that must be completed before they change to the next morning, and two weekly initiatives that must be completed before the next Monday comes.
