Welcome to the CMAL website.

The Council of Metropolitan Area Leagues (CMAL) was established in 1962 in order to increase the knowledge and effectiveness of the local Leagues in the field of area-wide government issues.  It is an inter-league organization composed of all the local Leagues in the seven-county metropolitan area which includes Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington counties.  Through CMAL, League members work to address governmental issues of metropolitan concern.

This year CMAL will be looking at our current positions on issues affecting the Metropolitan Area.  Our speakers will address those topics and we will use the information to determine whether our positions need to be updated.

• October 2008 Meeting

  Carol Becker from the Met Council, gave us an update on public transit in the metropolitan area.

• January 2009 Meeting

  Steve Dornfeld, Met Council Public Affairs Director, gave us an overview of the Met Council's budget.

• March 2009 Meeting

• May 2009 Annual Meeting

  Met Council Member Peggy Lepik informed us on the environmental projects implementated by the Met Council.

Last year CMAL concentrated on Local Emergency Preparedness.
