MEMORANDUM
TO:
City Clerks of Direct Member Citien J~'
Donald J. Bomt, Executive Direct{J'-"
Congress of Cities Voting and Alternate Voting Delegates
FROM:
SUBJECT:
The National League of Cities' Annual Business Meeting will be held on
Saturday, December 4,2004, at the Congress of Cities in Indianapolis, Indiana.
As a direct member city, your elected officials are entitled to vote at the Annual
Business Meeting. Based on the population of the city, each member city casts
between one to twenty votes. The number of votes each city is allowed can be
found on the table on the reverse side of this memorandum.
To be eligible to cast a city's vote(s), each voting delegate and alternate must be
officially designated by the city using the attached credentials form. This form
will be forwarded to NLC's Credentials Committee. NLC Bylaws expressly
prohibit voting by proxy. The voting delegate must pick up his/her voting
credentials BEFORE the Annual Business Meeting and must be present at the
Annual Business Meeting to cast the city's vote(s).
Your city's elected officials should be made aware of this request so that
decisions can be made on who will be the voting delegate and alternate at the
Annual Business Meeting. Before the Congress of Cities, NLC will be sending
out a special edition of the Policy Informer summarizing the proposed National
Municipal Policy amendments and resolutions that are to be voted on at the
Annual Business Meeting. This information should be shared with your voting
delegates.
We ask that you return the completed form to NLC on or before October 8,
2004. Please follow the instructions on the card for filling out the form and
make a copy for your own files. A pre-addressed envelope is attached for your
convenience. If you have any questions or concerns, contact Keith Kirk at
kirk@n1c.org or (202) 626-3 I 76.
