Now in its sixth year, CCLI educates elected city officials who are interested in pursuing <br />future state office about key state issues. <br /> <br />Program Details <br /> <br />Presented by the League Partner Program, CCLI exposes city officials to a variety of complex <br />statewide priorities including transportation, water, the impact of increasing energy demand on <br />our growing state, and more. The program is designed to give local leaders a broad, in-depth <br />understanding of critical issues affecting the state; highlight the tools they will need to succeed if <br />elected to the Legislature; and provide a forum where lasting bonds can be created among <br />California's rising leaders. For the first time in 2009, CCLI also included a reception in conjunction <br />with the Sacramento education session where participants were able to meet and greet <br />legislators and lobbyists. <br /> <br />CCLI features informal roundtable discussions and takes participants out in the field. The <br />program includes a tour of Big Creek, Southern California Edison's hydro-electric facility, giving <br />participants the opportunity to see first hand how electricity is generated and moved throughout <br />the state. <br /> <br />The 2010 program is ideal for those already working within leadership roles with the League or for <br />anyone interested in becoming a statewide advocate of local government. The League's Partner <br />Program is proud of the great leaders CCLI has produced, and pleased to be able to once again <br />offer this prestigious program to interested city officials. <br /> <br />How to Nominate a City Official <br /> <br />Any mayor, council member or professional city staff member, League caucus member or League <br />Partner may nominate a current elected city official to participate in CCLI. <br /> <br />The nomination form can be found on the League's Web site at <br />www.cacities.ora/resource files/2850 1.20 1 0%20Reauest%20for%20Nominations%20Letter%20a <br />nd%20Form%20FINAL.odf. <br /> <br />When submitting nominations please convey the governance skills and accomplishments of the <br />nominee and highlight any and all contributions toward League goals and/or the League's mission <br />of protecting local control.
