Legislative Policies
2010 City Policies
The League's City Policies are the only comprehensive statewide advocacy agenda for all Minnesota cities.
The City Policies come directly from the input of hundreds of city officials from across the state participating in the League’s four policy committees, regional meetings, annual conference, and many other member meetings.

Each year, the League Board of Directors also narrows down the city policies to develop its top legislative policy priorities. The Board has adopted the 2010 priorities. The top three are:
- State and local fiscal relations,
- State budget stability, and
- Bonding/capital improvement, specifically related to drinking water, wastewater, storm water, urban forest management and transportation infrastructure.
The 2010 City Policies publication contains more than 100 policies, including the League’s legislative initiatives and defensive positions on a number of issues.
League policies cover the following areas:
