The 2018 Crown Communities awards

Each year, American City & County presents its Crown Communities awards to local governments that have executed the most innovative and impactful projects over the past 18 months. With cities and counties building a net-zero municipal complex, implementing an after school program that will create a pipeline of technology professionals for a city and creating a state’s first simulation training for adult protective services, 2018 proved to be an exemplary year for Crown Communities.

This year, the following communities won American City & County‘s Crown Communities awards:

• Baltimore, Md.
• Colorado Springs, Colo.
• Eastlake, Ohio
• Forest Hills, Pa.
• Orange County, Calif.
• Roanoke, Texas
