Registration Information
Limit

120

We must balance three factors affecting registration for this meeting:

  1. Member interest
  2. Ensuring a quorum of Voting Representatives
  3. Maintaining a maximum of 120 attendees in the Monroe Township Public Library’s large meeting room (as mandated by the fire marshal).

As a result, we will open registration to Voting Representatives first, followed by general registration two weeks later:

  1. Registration for Voting Representatives opens Wednesday, May 8, 2019. We urge you to register before May 22 in advance of the opening of general membership registration.
    • Voting Representatives should be listed on our Voting Representatives list and will need to login into their LLNJ User Accounts to access the registration link.
    • If you are a Voting Representative and are not listed, please fill out the Voting Representative Update Form (user login required). Once we update your status, you will be able to login and register for the membership meeting.
  2. Registration for general members opens Wednesday, May 22, 2019

We will announce the opening of both registration periods via email blast and our Forums.

Deadline for all Registration: Tuesday, May 28, 2019, 5 pm - REGISTRATION IS FILLED
