TITLE
Recommendation to receive and file travel report for League of California Cities 2009 Annual Conference/Exposition and Latino Caucus Board Meeting held September 17 - 19, 2009.
DISCUSSION
I would like to take this opportunity to file a travel report as required by AB 1234 for activities consistent with the definition of "official City Business" under the City Auditor's Travel and Reimbursement Policy for Non-AR Departments:
· Meetings with government and business leaders for the purpose of carrying out official City business;
· Non-partisan conferences, training and education trips, including visiting other governments to discuss and observe best practices;
· Travel in furtherance of an adopted policy, ordinance or City resolution.
My attendance at the League of California Cities (LCC) conference from September 17 to September 19 was authorized under the capacity of my membership on the Board of Directors for LCC Latino Caucus and the city's membership in the League of California cities. This conference provided me with the opportunity to represent the City in a working dialogue that focused on collaboration and information sharing of key issues facing member cities.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
Respectfully Submitted,
TONIA REYES URANGA
