The Florida League of Cities, the united voice for Florida’s municipal governments, announced that Councilmember Prebble Ramswell was recently appointed to serve on the Florida League of Cities 2021-2022 Municipal Administration Committee, one of the League’s five Legislative Policy Committees.

Legislative Policy Committee chairs, vice chairs and members were appointed by the League’s incoming President, City of Lakeland Commissioner Phillip Walker.

As noted earlier on Monday morning, Legislative Policy Committee members help develop the League’s Legislative Action Agenda.

This agenda details priority issues that are most likely to affect daily municipal governance and local decision-making during the upcoming legislative session
It also helps League staff understand the real-world implications of proposed legislation.

Committee members are also asked to serve as advocates for local decision-making throughout the legislative process.
