Memo to: Carmel City Council Members and Mayor,
City Council Meeting
February 24, 1997
RE: Initiation of new procedures to govern Council meetings:
With the permission of the Parliamentarian, I would like to introduce to the Council a
policy that if adopted would make it mandatory that all documents requiting signature of
the elected officials including ordinances and resolutions, immediately upon their
passage by a vote, be delivered to each Council Member and be signed by each Member
who voted for passage. And the signature, if necessary, of the Clerk-Treasurer or a duly
authorized representative of the Clerk-Treasurer be affixed to the document after all
Council Members have signed the document. This process shall be completed on all
documents before the meeting can be officially adjourned. In case of amendments, the
amendment shall be written down by the Clerk-Treasurer or a representative of the
Clerk-Treasurer at the time the amendment is make. The written amendment shall be
attached to the original document before proper signing occurs. These procedures shall be
followed at each Council meeting. I realize that this may cause some delay and hardship,
but in light of recent actions by the Clerk-Treasurer, I find it a reasonable request.
Respectfully submitted by:
Robert Battreall
