The purpose of this special meeting is to brief the membership on the status of the Local Taxpayers and Public Safety Protection Act and the proposed alternative that may be recommended by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger that would provide similar or better protection of local revenues in exchange for a two-year contribution by local governments to solving the state's budget crisis. As details on the proposal become clearer in the weeks ahead, the League hopes to schedule conference calls at which members can ask questions about the proposal. At the special meeting each city's delegate will be able to vote on any items that require formal action. At this time, there is not a proposed resolution, but one is expected to be developed and will be sent prior to the meeting. Each city has one vote at any League membership meeting (per the League's voting procedures). Please let the League know who will be the designated voting delegate and alternate for your city, by completing the attached voting delegate form and return it to the League's Sacramento office via fax by May 11. You may also return it personally at Legislative Action Days. On Wednesday, the voting delegate table will be available in the LOCAL Legislative Action Days registration area located in the lower lobby of the Sheraton Hotel. On Thursday, the voting delegate table will be located at the Grand Ballroom. Any city official designated as a voting delegate MUST check in at the voting delegates table. At that time, the voting delegate will be given the voting card for this General Assembly. It is not necessary to register for or attend LOCAL Legislative Action Days in order to attend and participate in the special meeting. However, in addition to the special meeting, city officials should also register for (no cost) and participate in LOCAL Legislative Action Days. If you have not already registered, you may do so online at httD:/IWWW.calocal.com/leadavs.htm. The voting procedures to be followed at this meeting are printed on the reverse side of this memo. If you have any questions, please call Lorraine Okabe at 916/658-8236. d3/0'f -fl5/ .. . <II '. ~ ~ ~M90br~ CITIES League of California Cities Special Meeting of League General Assembly Voting Procedures 1.
