| "Cities, not only, can be leaders in inovation, they must be" Jim Hunt |

Welcome to AMAZING CITIES, an organization founded by Jim Hunt, Immediate Past President of the National League of Cities. He is passionate about working with dedicated public servants and civic leaders who want to take their communities to the next level.
Is your city facing some of the following challenges:
- Does it seem like citizens are disconnected from the governing process?
- Are the elected officials on the “same page” as staff?
- Do budget issues dominate the agenda?
- Does it feel like you are stuck in the past and not prepared for the future?
- Do businesses view the government as the problem, rather than the solution?
- Are neighborhoods falling victim to slum and blight?
Imagine where your city could be if…
- Citizens were engaged in inclusive problem solving.
- Elected officials and staff work together on a shared vision.
- Meetings are focused on results.
- Creativity is encouraged and innovation is rewarded.
- Businesses view government as partners.
- Neighborhoods become vibrant and stable.
Amazing Cities is a new way of thinking in local government. Jim Hunt has worked with cities for over twenty years and believes that people who serve in local government don't do it to be average. No, they strive to be AMAZING!!! We work in one of the most accountable levels of government and we interact with our constituents more than any other public officials.
Join us on this amazing journey. What if...
