S. Sister Cities International Organization SUBMITTED BY City Attorney ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES X NO ) The City Council approved a total amount of $1,740 for the International Friendship Commission for the current fiscal year. Included was approval of $60.00 for membership dues in the "United States/Mexico Sister Cities Association". The International Firendship Commission, at their regular meeting held September 26, 1977, voted 7-0 to request that an additional amount of $250.00 be added to the Commission's Membership and Dues Account (#100- 0110-5223) for Commission membership in the "United States Sister Cities International" organization, in order to proceed with plans to select an additional Sister City for Chula Vista. This action is being introduced due to the fact that, in the past, Council has indicated their concern with the Commission's exclusive association with one Sister City. The indication has been that perhaps it would be better to establish rela- tionships with several communities in various parts of the world. Thus, the Commission has been discussing association with one of the following cities: Barcelona, Venezuela; Bitoli, Yugoslavia; Bizerte, Tunisia; Georgetown, Guyana; Gorgan, Iran; Liniongwe, Malawi; etc. The City Council, at their meeting of October 18, 1977, voted to amend the International Friendship Commission's budget to include the $250 for membership in the U. S. Sister Cities International Organization. rvnrnrTn ~nninli~ Agreement Resolution x Ordinance_ Plat_ Notification List_ Other ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT: Attached Submitted on FINANCIAL IMPACT Appropriate $250.00 from the unappropriated balance of the General Fund STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approval of Resolution BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Approval of request to amend the International Friendship Commission's budget for Fiscal 1977-78, adding $250 to Account No. loo-0110-5223.
