In order to vote at the Annual Business Meeting, your city council must designate a voting delegate. In the event that the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity, your city may appoint up to two alternate voting delegates. The ability to appoint up to two alternates is the result of approval last year of League bylaws amendment that increased the number of voting;delegate alternates from one to two. Please complete the attached Voting Delegate form and return it to the League's office no later than August 13,so that voting delegate/alternates records may be established prior to the conference.
