Oxnard officials presented recommendation to designate voting delegate for League of California Cities conference
Summary
City clerk Lulie Lopez asked the Oxnard City Council to designate a voting delegate and alternate for the League of California Cities Annual Conference Oct. 8–10 in Long Beach; the league's business meeting is set for 8:30 a.m. Oct. 10 and only designated delegates or alternates may sign petitions to initiate resolutions.
Lulie Lopez, city clerk, told the Oxnard City Council that staff recommends the council designate a voting delegate and a voting alternate to represent Oxnard at the League of California Cities Annual Conference scheduled Oct. 8–10 at the Long Beach Convention Center.
Lopez said the league’s annual business meeting will be held at 8:30 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 10, and that league members will consider and take action on resolutions that establish league policy. "Only the individual who is the voting delegate or alternate voting delegate may sign petitions to initiate a resolution pertaining to league policy," Lopez said.
Lopez noted that Councilwoman Perez and Councilwoman Rodriguez will be attending the conference and representing the city. The presentation concluded with a recommendation that the City Council formally designate a voting delegate and an alternate; the transcript of the presentation does not record a council vote or the names of any delegate or alternate designated during the meeting.
The recommendation matters because designated delegates — or their alternates — are the only city representatives authorized by the league to sign petitions that initiate resolutions during the league’s policy-making meeting. No other legal authorities or statutes were cited in the presentation.
