Welcome to the Office of the Mayor's website

Welcome to the Mayor’s Office! I hope this virtual guide will help you find the important information you need about my plans to revitalize Hartford, New England’s Rising Star.

From my days as a community organizer and activist, and now as Mayor and Chairman of the Board of Education, my dream has always been to provide a better quality of life for people of all backgrounds. Mayor’s Biography Biografía en Español

Safe and vibrant neighborhoods, high achieving schools, good paying jobs, affordable housing, fair taxes, and increased economic development -- these provide the foundation for Hartford’s success.

We are making great strides, but together we can do more. Our Neighborhood Policing Plan is strengthening the bond between the dedicated men and women of the Hartford Police Department and our proud residents. Public Safety Strategies

$1 billion dollars is being invested in our schools over the next 10 years. We’re seeing that money pay off already. Seven new and renovated schools are now complete and six more are underway as part of phase 2 of this impressive project. You can see this revitalization happening right before your eyes in every neighborhood. Education Plan

The school construction program is creating jobs and we’re striving for a more educated workforce so that we want to attract and maintain high-salary jobs in the Capital City. Job/Neighborhood Economic Development Initiatives

Whether it is homes being built and bought or businesses being opened, Hartford is definitely a city on the move and on the rise. Homeownership Initiative

The diversity of our people is our strength and our big dreams are our common goal. So whether you are a resident -- or you are visiting us from out of town, out of state, or from out of the country -- I welcome you to Hartford. Enjoy!
