Introduction - League Members - Membership For Businesses, Organizations

The League of Nebraska Municipalities is a nonprofit service association formed in 1909 to serve as a voice for Nebraska municipalities at the Nebraska Legislature.

Governed by a 15-member Executive Board comprised of municipal officials, the League now has more than 385 member cities and villages. It represents cities whose population totals 98 percent of Nebraskans who live in municipalities.

The mission of the League of Nebraska Municipalities is to represent the interests of member cities and villages to preserve local control and empower municipal officials to shape the destiny of their municipality and improve the quality of life of their citizens.

All Nebraska municipalities are eligible to become members. Contact the League office today at 402-476-2829 for information about joining the League.
