SUMMARY: The Association of California Water Agencies conducts an annual conference in Washington DC. The dates for the 2020 conference are February 25 through February 27. At the March 21, 2019 Legislative Advocacy Committee meeting, staff recommended that attendance could be limited to three directors and offered first to committee members. The committee requested that the proposed limit on attendance be submitted to the Board of Directors for consideration at the November or December 2019 Board meeting, prior to close of conference registration. At that time, the Board could decide if a limitation on attendance is warranted.

RECOMMENDATION: The Board of Directors should decide if a limitation on attendance at the annual ACWA Washington DC conference is warranted and, if so, determine what limitations should be established.
