About the League The League of Minnesota Cities has worked with and for its member cities since 1913. The League advocates on behalf of its members on major policy issues and promotes a city agenda to state legislators, the governor, state agencies, and Minnesota's congressional delegation. The League's Insurance Trust offers insurance coverages and risk management services specifically designed for the needs of cities. Our customized products and services, specialized information, and original research provide direct guidance to city officials on municipal operations and governance. Training and conferences keep elected and appointed officials up to date on critical issues, help build skills, and provide networking opportunities. The League is governed by a Board of Directors composed of elected and appointed officials from across the state. Core Values: Leadership Innovation Excellence Collaboration Inclusiveness Professionalism Trust Stewardship Collective Action History: The League of Minnesota Cities (LMC), founded in 1913 by a special law passed by the Minnesota Legislature, was initially a part of the Extension Division of the University of Minnesota. Later, in 1974, the League became an independent organization. Today, the League's membership includes cities and their elected and appointed officials, special districts, and townships across Minnesota. Services: Research staff who are available to answer city officials' questions (by phone, in person, or online). An LMC Library that's open to members on a walk-in basis. Charter assistance program and Codification services tailored to the city's needs. Outreach services from our field representative and ambassadors who assist city officials on-site. Representation of cities at the Minnesota Legislature. Information and advice about human resources and benefits, and salary and benefits surveys. Training and conferences on a wide variety of municipal issues and concerns. Publications that include information about legislative action affecting cities, new technologies, and issues and ideas for elected and appointed city officials. A self-insurance pool for cities that covers liability, property, auto, workers' compensation and health and dental coverage.
