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 Tuesday afternoon, October 8 at 3:30 p.m. in the San Francisco Hilton Hotel. To expedite this important policy-making meeting, each City Council should designate a 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 matters 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 Council 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 or alternate. Please forward the enclosed ".voting delegate form" to the Sacramento office 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, 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.
