Inner Core Committee (ICC)

The Inner Core Committee (ICC) is a Greater Boston subregion of twenty-one (21) communities: Arlington, Belmont, Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Lynn, Malden, Medford, Melrose, Milton, Needham, Newton, Quincy, Revere, Saugus, Somerville, Waltham, Watertown, and Winthrop, working collaboratively on regional issues.

The ICC is MAPC's largest subregion, representing the largest number of municipalities of any subregion: about 51 percent of the MAPC region’s population - over 1.6 million residents.

As some of the most urban and populous communities within the MAPC planning area, ICC cities and towns deal with a host of unique challenges, such as finite developable land, issues of neighborhood change and gentrification, limited affordability, congestion, and public transit capacity limitations, to name a few.

The ICC meets regularly to discuss these and other topics, share best planning practices, and explore opportunities for regional collaboration.

Our Purpose

The Committee was formed to foster joint and cooperative action within the Inner Core subregion of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) and to provide a forum to explore issues which are a concern of the subregion but not necessarily of the same concern to the MAPC region as a whole.
