Prior to the Annual Conference, each city <br />council may designate a voting delegate and up to two alternates; these individuals are <br />identified on the Voting Delegate Form provided to the Cal Cities Credentials Committee. <br /> <br />3. Registering with the Credentials Committee. The voting delegate, or alternates, may <br />pick up the city's voting card at the Voting Delegate Desk in the conference registration <br />area. Voting delegates and alternates must sign in at the Voting Delegate Desk. Here they <br />will receive a special sticker on their name badge and thus be admitted to the voting area at <br />the Business Meeting. <br /> <br />4. Signing Initiated Resolution Petitions.

Admission will be limited to those individuals with a special <br />sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate or alternate. <br /> <br />7. Resolving Disputes. In case of dispute, the Credentials Committee will determine the <br />validity of signatures on petitioned resolutions and the right of a city official to vote at the <br />Business Meeting. <br />
