RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATE FOR LEAGUE ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Dear City Official:
The most important aspect of the Annual Conference is the General Bu dness Session at
which time the membership takes action on conference resolutions. It Is especially
important during these times of uncertainty for California cities to take the initiative In
developing positive programs for the future. Annual Conference resolutions will guide
cities and the League in our effort to improve the quality, responsiveness and vitality of
local government within this state. All cities should be represented at the Business
Session on Wednesday morning, October 5 at 10:00 a.m. in the San Francisco Hilton Hotel.
To expedite this important policy-making meeting, each City Council should designate L
voting representative and an alternate who will be present at the Business Session.. The
League Constitution provides that each city is entitled to one vote in natters affecting
municipal or League policy. A voting card will be given to the city official designated by
the City Council on the enclosed "voting delegate form."
If the Mayor or a member of the City Council is In attendance at the Conference, it Is
expected that one of these officials will be designated as the voting delegate. However, If
the City Col:ncil will not have a registered delegate at the Conference but will be
represented by other city officials, one of these officials should be designated the voting
delegate ar alternate.
Pleaso forward the enclosed "voting form" to the Sacramento office ce of the
League at the earliest possible time, so that the proper records may be established for the
Conference. The voting delegate may pick up the city's voting card In the League
Registration Area, California Room, Ballroom Level, San Francisco Hilton Hotel.
If it becomes necessary for the voting delegate and the designated alternate to leave the
Conference, the card may be transferred to another official from the same city, providing
the transfer has been cleared with the Credentials Committee, which will be responsible
for distributing voting cards.
It is suggested that the Mayor and all Council Members from a given city try to sit
together at the Business Session so that, if amendments are considered, there may be an
exchange of points of view and a consensus arrived at before the city's vote ;s cast.
Your cooperation in returning the attached "voting delegate form" as soon Ns possible will
be apprecisiPd.
