One City One Vote. Each member city has a right to cast one vote on <br />matters pertaining to Cal Cities policy. <br /> <br />2. Designating a City Voting Representative. Prior to the Annual Conference, <br />each city council may designate a voting delegate and up to two <br />alternates; these individuals are identified on the Voting Delegate Form <br />provided to the Cal Cities Credentials Committee. <br /> <br />3. Registering with the Credentials Committee. The voting delegate, or <br />alternates, may pick up the city's voting card at the Voting Delegate Desk in <br />the conference registration area. Voting delegates and alternates must <br />sign in at the Voting Delegate Desk. Here they will receive a special sticker <br />on their name badge and thus be admitted to the voting area at the <br />Business Meeting. <br /> <br />4. Signing Initiated Resolution Petitions. Only those individuals who are voting <br />delegates (or alternates), and who have picked up their city’s voting card <br />by providing a signature to the Credentials Committee at the Voting <br />Delegate Desk, may sign petitions to initiate a resolution. <br /> <br />5. Voting. To cast the city's vote, a city official must have in their possession the <br />city's voting card and be registered with the Credentials Committee. The <br />voting card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and <br />alternates, but may not be transferred to another city official who is neither <br />a voting delegate or alternate. <br /> <br />6. Voting Area at Business Meeting. At the Business Meeting, individuals with a <br />voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission will be limited to those <br />individuals with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a <br />voting delegate or alternate. <br /> <br />7. Resolving Disputes. In case of dispute, the Credentials Committee will <br />determine the validity of signatures on petitioned resolutions and the right of <br />a city official to vote at the Business Meeting. <br /> <br />
