Mayors' Summit

CML Mayors’ Summit

CML recently hosted the Mayors’ Summit, an interactive, in-person experience designed exclusively for Colorado mayors. The summit focused on strengthening leadership, governance, and community engagement through practical training, peer exchange, and real-world case discussions.

Sessions explored a wide range of municipal leadership topics, including media relations, strategic planning, Open Meetings Law, navigating complex governance challenges, building effective mayor–manager partnerships, and best practices for engaging residents. Participants also had valuable opportunities to connect with fellow mayors from across the state and share lessons learned.
