The Association of Manitoba Municipalities (AMM) is an organization of municipal governments in the province of Manitoba, Canada. All incorporated municipalities in Manitoba are members.[1]
Its stated purpose is to "identify and address the needs and concerns of [its] members to achieve strong and effective municipal government."[2]
The AMM is funded solely by its members and by its business arm, the AMM Trading Company.[3]
The Union of Manitoba Municipalities was created in 1905. By 1910, the UMM would grow to a little over 100 members.[4]
All 137 incorporated municipalities in Manitoba are members of the AMM, as represented by their mayors, reeves, and councillors. The AMM comprises seven districts, each with two directors: Parkland, Interlake, Midwestern, Central, Western, Eastern, and Northern. The City of Winnipeg is also represented by one Director.
AMM and representatives from Manitoba serve on the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Board of Directors.
The AMM also offers associate non-voting memberships to First Nations, other communities, school boards, hospital boards, and other associations.[5] The following are some of the current AMM Associate Members, :
