Longmont Council Member Jeff Moore Elected to National League of Cities Board of Directors
Longmont City Council member Jeff Moore has been elected to the National League of Cities (NLC) Board of Directors for 2016. He will serve a two-year term.
The National League of Cities (http://www.nlc.org) represents roughly 19,000 municipalities around the country representing more than 218 million Americans.
“Longmont is seen as a national leader on many municipal issues such as infrastructure and broadband development,” Moore says. “Serving on the board gives our views greater national and legislative visibility.”
Moore has most recently served as chair of NLC’s Information Technology & Communications Committee. He was first appointed to the committee in 2014. The committee is responsible for developing policy positions on issues involving telecommunications and information systems (and public access to those systems), privacy concerns, cable TV, phone services, spectrum issues, communications tower siting, universal service, broadcasting, and defense of city rights-of-way from degradation caused by installation of communications facilities.
“I have represented Longmont’s broadband interests on a national level since 2014 as more municipalities embrace this cutting edge technology,” Moore says. “I intend to continue those efforts as a member of the NLC Board of Directors.”
“It is great to have Jeff on this prestigious board, and the Colorado Municipal League was pleased to support his efforts. His involvement will help all of our cities and towns,” stated CML Executive Director Sam Mamet.
Moore, a 20-year resident of Longmont, was elected to the City Council in 2013 to serve a four-year term representing the residents of Ward 2.
