W2 On motion of Council Member Snider, Olson second, Council designated Mayor Fred Reid as the voting delegate and Mayor Pro Tempore Murphy as the alternate for the Annual League of California Cities Conference to be held in Los Angeles, October 17-20, 1982. V qac 4 M 8, League of California Cities -11 RECEIVED August 11,Sacramenti48�jf2 fi 9 14 TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL ALICE j`. I. IRE ir•;CIiE CITY CLERK (117Y C. Lr,nf RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATE FOR LEAGUE ANNUAL CONFERENCE Dear City Official: The most important aspect of the Annual Conference is the General Business 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 20 at 10:00 a.m. in the Town and Country Hotel, San Diego. 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, Lower Level, Conference Center, Town do Country Hotel, San Diego. 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 Credenti-Is 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 is cast. Your cooperation in returning the attached "voting delegate form" as soon as possible will he appreciated. DB:nl Attachment HEADOLIARTERS STREET.
