BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In 1996, Council adopted Resolution No. 96-138 setting forth a policy on the designation of a Voting Delegate and Voting Alternate for future League of California Cities and National League of Cities annual business meetings instead of adopting a new resolution each year. The policy currently states that the Mayor serve as the Voting Delegate and the Mayor Pro Tempore serve as the Voting Alternate and, in the event the Mayor and/or Mayor Pro Tempore does not attend the meeting, the Mayor will make the selection. Since then, the participation of Council Members at the League of California Cities level has significantly increased. Council Member representatives are extremely active in tracking legislation and making recommendations and decisions regarding League positions on bills affecting California. Because of this extensive, high-level involvement and knowledge, it is appropriate that the individual serving in this capacity serve as the Voting Delegate. It is recommended that Resolution No. 96-138 be repealed and amended (Exhibit A) to give priority in the designation of Voting Delegate to Council Members who serve as a liaison to the League of California Cities. It is further recommended that the City Clerk be directed to update the City Council Protocol Manual to reflect this change. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
