Resolution amending the city council rules of procedure by reinstating recitation
of the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of every regular meeting.
Whereas, St. Louis Park City Code Section 2-31 states that the city council shall establish
meeting times and adopt rules of procedure from time to time by resolution; and
Whereas, by Resolution No. 00-108, the city council adopted the rules of procedure and
shall adhere to the rules as stated therein unless revised by a majority vote of the city council;
and
Whereas, the city council desires to amend its rules of procedure as they relate to the
recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance.
Now therefore be it resolved that Section III. E. is hereby amended by adding underlined
language:
III. Agenda and order of business.
E. Call to order.
At the hour appointed for meeting, the members shall be called to order by the
mayor, and in their absence, by the mayor pro tem. The mayor will lead all
present in the Pledge of Allegiance and instruct the secretary to call the roll and
note the absences. The secretary will note in the minutes the time and point in
proceedings when any member absent for roll call arrives, or when any member
leaves prior to adjustment.
