Wakefield Town Council Chairman Ed Dombroski speaks with Rep. Brad Jones before an MMA Legislative Breakfast in Lynnfield on Oct. 4.
Every spring and fall, the MMA hosts a series of meetings in communities across the state to give local leaders, legislators and MMA staff the opportunity to network in an informal setting, exchange information, and discuss issues of importance in state and local government.
The 2019-2020 legislative session is in its second year, and the MMA is tracking hundreds of bills that would affect cities and towns. Relevant bills will be discussed, along with topics such as the state budget, education finance, economic development, housing, municipal recycling and recreational marijuana.
City and town officials from every community are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to talk about local successes and challenges and to give input on the MMA’s legislative priorities.
A continental breakfast will be provided at 8 a.m. Introductions will begin at 8:15, followed by presentations and Q&A. The meetings will end by 10 a.m.
The meetings are free to attend, but members are asked to pre-register online or by fax or mail.
Attendees are urged to contact their local legislators and invite them to attend as well.
