As you know, the Florida League of Cities' Annual Conference will be held at the Marriott
World Center in Orlando, Florida on August 16-18. This year we are celebrating the Florida
League of Cities 85th Anniversary. We will provide valuable educational opportunities to
help Florida's city officials serve their citizenry more effectively.
It is important that each municipality designate one person to be the voting delegate. Policy
development, election of League leadership and adoption of resolutions are undertaken during
the business meeting. One official from each municipality will make decisions that determine
the direction of the League.
In accordance with the League's by-laws, each municipalities vote is determined by
population, and the League will use the Estimates of Population from the University of
Florida for 2006.
Registration materials have already been sent to each municipality. Call us if you need
