Scholarship Funds for Community Involvement Conference Available Through
LGEAN


The International City/County Management Association (ICMA) is pleased to
sponsor a limited number of scholarships for individuals interested in
attending the 2005 Community Involvement Conference, who cannot attend
without financial assistance for travel. The scholarships are for up to
$1,000, which includes the conference registration fee, airfare or mileage,
hotel accommodations, and meals on a per diem basis.
Scholarship recipients are responsible for costs over the capped amount.
Upon receipt of your application, you will receive confirmation via an email
that it has been received. If you do not receive a confirmation within five
business days, please contact ICMA (please note that it is your
responsibility to confirm that ICMA has received your application before the
deadline).


Eligibility-
To be eligible for a scholarship, applicants must be affiliated with or a
representative of a local or tribal government (e.g., employees, elected
officials, appointed members). Only one application per person will be
accepted.


Criteria -
The goal of the travel scholarships is to ensure representation from a
balanced ratio of stakeholders at the conference. To determine who will
receive offers of assistance, ICMA applies various criteria to evaluate
applications and optimize broad participation in the conference. To this
end, ICMA will evaluate applications as described below:


.       Applicant must be employed by an eligible organization;
.       Due to limited funding, only one scholarship per local or tribal
government will be awarded; and
.       Applicants agree to attend the conference between the dates of
July 12 through July 14.
