How should media inquiries be handled? <br />Media inquiries related to the coalition should follow each city's typical internal media procedures. Momentum can assist <br />with talking point preparation and may coordinate or follow up on requests stemming from coalition press advisories. <br />Coalition -related media questions may be directed to kdrake@momentum-advocacy.com <br />What does participation require? <br />Participation is flexible and defined by each city. It may include staying informed through shared updates, sharing <br />operational or data insights, coordinating messaging where helpful, and participating in joint engagement or media if <br />desired. <br />Does participation require public statements or media engagement? <br />No. Cities choose whether and how they participate publicly. <br />What if our city does not want to join formally? <br />That is completely fine. Cities may stay informed, share perspective or data, selectively amplify shared messages, and <br />revisit participation at a later time. Cities may contact akise@momentum-advocacy.com <br />to receive updates. <br />What types of information are shared? <br />Information may include general operational impacts, public safety or service -delivery considerations, media inquiries and <br />messaging context, and relevant federal or state developments. Cities control what they choose to share. <br />Who should our point of contact be? <br />City managers or administrators are asked to serve as the primary point of contact. Additional staff, including <br />communications and policy staff, may also be included. <br />How do we learn more or express interest? <br />Cities may contact Alexis Kise (akise@momentum-advocacy.com) to request materials, ask questions, or indicate how they <br />would like to engage. <br />Is there a cost to participate in the Cities Coalition? <br />There is no cost to stay informed or engage as an ally, Cities that choose to formally join receive shared communications <br />support and coalition infrastructure and are asked to contribute an amount determined by the Executive Committee. <br />Questions related to contributions or participation structure should be directed to Mike Funk <br />(mfunk@minnetonkamn.gov). <br />Flour Exchange Building 310 4th Ave S #9200, Minneapolis, MN 55415 <br />momentum-advocacy.com <br />
