This election season, CCM is focused on bringing municipal issues to the forefront, with a particular focus on educating candidates and the public on specific issues impacting local government.  It is critical that the public and candidates seeking statewide office understand the challenges facing Connecticut’s 169 towns and cities.

Over the coming weeks, CCM will release a series of "issue bulletins" highlighting some of those challenges. Our goal is to inform the public and candidates about these issues in an effort to work with policymakers and our partners to address and provide sustainable solutions.  Our first bulletin - "The Voice of Municipalities" - is intended to introduce the services and challenges impacting towns and cities, along with the services and successful efforts of CCM to address them. 

Each week, CCM will be releasing bulletins on specific issues impacting towns and cities, including:

• CCM: The Voice of Municipalities
• Property Taxes;
• Housing and Economic Development;
• Labor Issues and Municipal Liability;
• Infrastructure and Transportation; and
• Education Funding and Services.

CCM’s is a ready and willing partner to assist in the development of public policy at the state and local level. Together we can collectively develop innova­tive and strategic plans and proposals that provide a positive step toward the future of municipal govern­ment. In that effort, we are committed to working with all of our partners – both in state government and outside stakeholders – to make Connecticut an attractive place to live and work.
