The Conference of Western Wayne (CWW) is a non-profit association of 18 Western Wayne communities that works to enhance the quality of life and opportunity for its nearly 700,000 residents and 100,000 businesses. Led by a dynamic team of 18 city mayors and township supervisors, the CWW has worked in a nonpartisan fashion to find solutions to regional issues for more than 40 years. Key issues for t
he communities of Western Wayne County include public safety, 9-1-1, workforce development, transportation, youth services, and revenue sharing. The active involvement of the chief elected officials among our diverse collection of cities and townships has made CWW an effective organization since its inception in 1978. Monthly CWW meetings are hosted on a rotating basis throughout its member communities, giving CWW leaders a firm understanding of the entire 340 square mile region. The CWW Board regularly discusses major policy issues and adopts policy resolutions that can benefit citizens and businesses across the region, with a special emphasis on issues that can be addressed with the unified voice of its 18 member communities. The Conference utilizes this philosophy in its dealings with county, state and federal elected officials. The CWW Board and Staff also work regularly to expand collaborative efforts with the community and business leaders of Michigan through regular communication, meetings and social events. CWW cities are Belleville, Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Garden City, Inkster, Livonia, Northville, Plymouth, Wayne and Westland. CWW townships are Canton, Huron, Northville, Plymouth, Redford, Sumpter and Van Buren.
