The League of Oregon Cities is formed by an intergovernmental agreement among all of Oregon's 242 incorporated cities. The League was founded in 1925 and is governed by a 15-member Board of Directors consisting of four officer positions and 11 directors, nine of whom are elected city officials and two of whom hold an appointed position with a member city. Non-voting positions are reserved for one individual who holds an appointed position with a member city, as well as past presidents who still hold a city elected office.

The League's Mission Statement:

The League of Oregon Cities is the effective and collective voice
of Oregon's cities and their authoritative
and best source of information and training.
