Agenda Item Brief: The Sparks Legislative team recommends approval of fiscal year 2013-14 membership dues for the NVLC&M. Membership to the NVLC&M supports the City in fulfilling its adopted state legislative platform. The advocacy on behalf of the League, along with sharing of information is a benefit and an important component in monitoring and advocating for or against applicable legislation. By speaking in a unified voice, Nevada Cities are more effective in achieving a positive legislative outcome. Additionally, The NVLC&M offers a number of learning opportunities to interact with other elected officials throughout the state.
Background: The original goals and objectives of the first League are the same that were adopted by the Nevada Municipal Association in 1959, and remain true today: To foster periodical conferences of city officials; disseminate knowledge of municipal affairs and government; to circulate publications on municipal affairs; to secure harmony of action among cities; and to render technical information and other services to the cities.” In 1995, the League By-Laws were amended to include membership from affiliates such as unincorporated towns, general improvement districts, and other municipalities. UPCOMING EVENTS: Nevada League of Cities & Nevada Association of Counties; Nevada League of Cities & Nevada Association of Counties Joint Annual Conference at MontBleu Resort, Stateline, NV on September 10, 2013; Congress of Cities & Exposition; The Congress of Cities and Exposition will be held in Seattle, WA from November 13 through November 16. The Conference will bring together local leaders from cities across the United States. Participants will find a range of learning and networking opportunities highlighting successful programs from the City of Seattle and communities across the country.
