The work of a local government official can be a lot like a conversation. Sometimes you speak; sometimes you listen. The July issue of Colorado Municipalities is full of great ideas to hone your skills at both. Articles in our “Engagement & Communication” issue cover social media strategy, municipal podcasts, language access, digital engagement, and the importance of building relationships before times of crisis. The issue also features CML’s Annual Report and a recap of our Annual Conference — where we enjoyed countless productive conversations with our members!

This year marks the 250^th birthday of the United States and 150^th birthday of the State of Colorado. The April 2026 issue of Colorado Municipalities celebrates these dual milestones. Articles explore how cities and towns have shaped the Centennial State, the fight for Colorado’s home rule amendment, and the importance of local history museums. In this year of historic anniversaries, CML is proud to present these stories highlighting the role people and communities have played in the history of Colorado.
