In order to update our records, the EIA needs the governing board for each public entity member to designate an individual or position who is authorized to officially act on behalf of and enter into agreements with the EIA. Please bring this matter to your governing board by September 1, 2010. Attached is a sample resolution for your convenience.
At the request of some of the members, we have also drafted a sample agenda report for you to use in requesting that your governing board designate an official representative.
The individual or designated position does not have to be the only contact person with your organization. In fact, you can have more than one contact that receives information and communications. To review who your entity has listed as contacts, please go to the Public Entity Membership page, then click on the name of your entity.
Please note, if your governing body designates an individual, the governing body will need to adopt a new resolution if that individual leaves the organization or the governing body decides to appoint someone else. If your governing body designates a position, such as city manager, they won’t have to adopt a new resolution if the city manager changes, but we would like to receive the new contact information if that occurs.
If you have any questions, please contact Gina Dean or your Alliant broker.
