Mayor Alvin Brown will return from Charlotte, N.C., Wednesday morning, after spending just over three days in the city that’s hosting the Democratic National Convention.
Brown, a member of the convention's credentialing committee, used frequent flyer miles for the trip, his office said Tuesday. He also paid for his own room and meals.
The mayor arrived Sunday evening and attended a meeting of the credentialing committee. Tuesday morning, he stopped by the convention venue to pick up credentials.
Brown's main reason for traveling up north was to attend meetings put on by the U.S. Conference of Mayors in conjunction with the convention. Similar events were held during the Republican National Convention in Tampa; Brown had announced plans to attend those events, but in the end was not able to do so, spokesman David DeCamp said.
