Dear Mayor Brainard:
On behalf of the National League of Cities (NLC), I would like to thank you and the City of Carmel for your
continued membership. We hope your municipality is fully utilizing your membership and the many benefits
that it can bring to your community and your citizens.
As an elected official, you know changes in the Census data affect everything from federal appropriations to
municipal road funding. NLC is no exception as city membership dues are based on city population.
Understanding that many municipalities have had significant increases in population and are also facing the
challenging fiscal environment, the NLC Board of Directors voted to cap all Census increases to no more than
4% in 2012. This will allow for adequate time for planning for the full dues amount, which will be assessed for
all member cities in 2013.
Therefore, the dues amount for the City of Carmel for this year is $3,388, which represents a 4% increase
over last year. Because your municipality's population increased more than 83% since the 2000 census, based
on the updated reported census population of 79,191, your municipality's 2013 dues will be $5,952. We wanted
to provide you this number in advance so that you can include this information in consideration in your FY2013
budget discussions.
NLC will continue to provide excellent services while helping city leaders build better communities. Through
your engagement with NLC, you also have the opportunity to gain insight into your specific interests by getting
involved in one of the NLC's councils, committees or panels. Most recently NLC has introduced, myNLC, a
secure online community, where members can manage their profile, register for events and webinars, subscribe
to newsletters, and access a variety of web offerings.
If you have any questions about your municipality's NLC membership or about how to become more involved
in NLC, I invite you to contact our Member Services department at 202- 626 -3100 or email
memberservices2nlc.org Monday Friday, 8:30a.m. -5:00 p.m. (EST)
We look forward to your continued participation and the opportunity to serve you in the months and years
ahead.
Sincerely,
Donald J. Borut
Executive Director
