BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The League of California Cities ("Cal Cities") was founded 1898. The organization partners with City leaders across the State, to expand and protect local control through education and advocacy. Cal Cities offers education and training programs for City leaders and hosts conferences to provide an open forum for California cities' officials to meet and to share information and experiences.
The League has standing policy committees which make recommendations to the Board of Directors on legislation, new policy guidelines, and key issues impacting cities. The committees are composed of elected and appointed city officials throughout the State of California, including the League of California Cities Executive Committee, comprised of mayors and vice mayors. Mayor Craig is currently appointed as the delegate on the Executive Committee and Mayor Pro Tempore Bregman as the alternate.
The 2024 League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo will be held October 16-18, in Long Beach. On the last day of the conference, a General Assembly Meeting is held for all Cal Cities' member cities, to consider and act on resolutions that establish League policy. As a Member, the City of Lodi may appoint a voting delegate and an alternate voting delegate to attend and vote on the City's behalf. The voting delegate and alternate voting delegate must be registered to attend the conference. All members of Council have expressed interest and have been registered to attend the conference.
