City Councilmember Handbook <br /> Sister City — Friendship City Guidelines <br /> V. City Official Visits to Sister Cities <br /> When a City Councilmember initiates a request to visit a Sister City, such request will be made <br /> in writing to the City Council, including the proposed itinerary, how the travel and expenses will <br /> be funded, and other assistance the City will be asked to provide (i.e. gifts to be presented by the <br /> Councilmember). The Human Relations Committee will make a recommendation to the City <br /> Council, including a recommended budget for the visit. The Mayor will send appropriate <br /> correspondence to the Mayor of the Sister City. <br /> When an invitation is received from a Sister City for San Leandro officials to visit that city, the <br /> City Council shall review the invitation or request, including what expenses, if any, have been <br /> offered by the Sister City. The City Council will then consider recommendations from the City <br /> Council Human Relations Committee regarding who will represent the City and how the travel <br /> and expenses shall be funded. <br /> 4 <br />
