The California City Management Foundation (CCMF) has announced that Johnson Controls has increased its support of the city management community through its upgrade to a Foundation Circle sponsor of CCMF.

Johnson Controls International Plc. is a global diversified technology and multi industrial leader serving a wide range of customers in more than 150 countries. Their commitment to sustainability dates back to 1885, with the invention of the first electric room thermostat. Johnson Controls is making the future more productive, more secure and more sustainable by creating intelligent buildings, efficient energy solutions, integrated infrastructure and next-generation transportation systems that work seamlessly together to deliver on the promise of smart cities and communities.

“CCMF would like to thank Johnson Controls for recommitting to top-level support to our organization,” said Ken Stripin, CCMF President. “Your financial support helps us reach further and wider on our mission to encourage excellence in city management.”
