“…initiated legislation should be realistic and closely related to the conduct of our members’ responsibilities if we are to retain a high level of credibility. Local elected officials’ groups, county and otherwise, as well as other interest groups, should be encouraged to find sponsors for and initiate their own proposals, allowing our members and CCI to take a supportive role when the bill is introduced” – CCI Policy Statement

Steering Committee Meeting | Friday, September 20, 2024, 9:00am - 4:00pm | Virtual
The CCI Legislative Committee will meet on Friday, October 4 at 9 a.m. to adopt the proposals that will become CCI legislative priorities in the upcoming session. This meeting is immediately followed by a membership meeting in which the full membership affirms the work of the Legislative Committee.
For this Legislative Committee meeting, the CCI Bylaws require that each county appoint one commissioner representative to serve and cast that county’s vote; counties are also able to appoint an alternate. Unlike Steering Committee proxies, the voting member for the Legislative Committee, must be a county commissioner and cannot be an employee of the county.
Submissions are now closed.
Only discussion will occur, no votes will be taken. However, proponents will have an opportunity to conduct a straw poll to gauge the interest of their colleagues.
This meeting has concluded.
