LMCs are member-led and the content is decided, organized and driven by participating members. Each council determines its program content, guest speakers, and meeting schedule.

Members are eligible to transfer to another LMC, on a space-available basis, after a minimum of one-year active participation with the original LMC.
3. Annual Participation Fee: LMC members pay a $225 annual participation fee, payable each year in January. (Public or Nonprofit members pay $200.) The participation fee is separate and in addition to a member’s annual dues to belong to ULI.
