“Cal-ICMA is grateful for Tripepi Smith’s ongoing partnership and support of local government leadership across California,” said Kevin Woodhouse, president of Cal-ICMA. “Their Cal-ICMA sponsorship reflects a shared dedication to professional development, collaboration and strengthening the work of city managers and executives statewide.”
As the California state affiliate of the International City/County Management Association, Cal-ICMA serves as a collaborative of local government-focused affiliate organizations to create opportunities for networking, development and training. The chapter connects members throughout the state to instill ethical management practices within the local government profession.
“Tripepi Smith is excited to renew our partnership with Cal-ICMA for another year,” said Tripepi Smith President Ryder Todd Smith. “Cal-ICMA plays an important role in supporting city managers and local government leaders throughout California.

About Cal-ICMA
Cal-ICMA is a collaborative that maintains a strong relationship between ICMA and its members in California, which include cities, counties, and special districts. They create a broad base partnership between all local government management professionals in the state, particularly in the areas of professional networking, development, and training to support ethical management in local government. Cal-ICMA is the official state affiliate with ICMA members in California. Founded in 2005, the California state affiliation with ICMA is unique so as not to create another “organization” with a separate dues structure.

Cal-ICMA also includes a number of affiliate organizations: California Association of County Executives (CACE), CivicPRIDE, International Network of Asian Pacific Islander Public Administrators (I-NAPA), Local Government Hispanic Network (LGHN), National Forum for Black Public Administrators (NFBPA), and Women Leading Government (WLG); along with members of the academic community and from all of the other ICMA membership categories.
