In my opinion that seems to be too many people. Send the City Manager plus 2 council members. The Council members are on for 4 years. They each have a turn to attend during their term. I also feel that the way the poll is worded in regards to the 2nd question is a back handed compliment.

It doesn't take EIGHT people to represent the city at a conference with the taxpayers footing the bill. What's the matter - can't Gonzalez choose just a few of her favorites?
