August 10-12, 2000 Fort Lauderdale, Florida In order to fairly systematize the method for presenting resolutions to the League membership, the following procedures have been instituted: (1) Proposed resolutions must be submitted in writing, to be received in the League office a minimum of 30 days prior to the first day of the annual conference. (2) Proposed resolution will be rewritten for proper form, duplicated by the League office and distributed to members of the Resolution Committee at least 15 days prior to the first day of the annual conference. (Whenever possible, multiple resolutions on a similar issue will be rewritten to encompass the essential subject matter in a single resolution with a listing of original proposers.) (3) Proposed resolutions may be submitted directly to the Resolutions Committee at the conference; however, a favorable two-thirds vote of the committee will be necessary to consider such resolutions. (4) Proposed resolutions may be submitted directly to the business session of the conference without prior committee approval by a vote of two-thirds of the members present. In addition, a favorable weighted vote of a majority of members present will be required for adoption. (5) Proposed resolutions relating to state legislation will be referred to the appropriate standing policy committee. Such proposals will not be considered by the Resolution Committee at the conference; however, all state legislative issues will be by the standing policy committees and the Legislative Committee prior to the membership at the annual Legislative Conference each fall. At that time, a state Legislative Policy Statement will be adopted. Cities unable to formally adopt a resolution 30 days prior to the first day of the conference may submit a letter to the League office indicating their city is considering the adoption of a resolution, outlining the subject thereof in as much detail as possible, and this letter will be forwarded to the Resolutions Committee for consideration in anticipation of receipt of the formal resolution.
