We are pleased to present Innovative Ideas for Managing Local Government. It’s our 35th annual compilation of great ideas from around the state that will help municipal leaders run local governments more effectively, efficiently, and equitably. These ideas save taxpayers money, while also providing municipal services that enhance community life.
The ideas are reprinted from Connecticut Town & City, the quarterly magazine of the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities (CCM).
Connecticut Town & City developed these stories from many sources, including visits to Connecticut local governments; suggestions from municipal officials; newspapers and magazines in Connecticut and other states; publications of the National League of Cities; and publications of other state municipal leagues. We would be happy to hear from readers about any ideas we should publish in the future.
