In the past, the Council has generally only considered proclamations regarding <br />Public Works Week, Police Week, and Night to Unite. An additional proclamation regarding fair <br />housing was passed last year. <br /> <br />Should Council want to create a formal policy on proclamations it should discuss how they are <br />brought forward, do all requested proclamations receive consideration, is there any type of <br />discussion or vetting done by the entire Council prior to consideration, what happens if the entire <br />Council is not supportive? Some possible direction is below: <br /> <br />• Proclamations need to be brought forward for consideration by a City Councilmember for <br />discussion at a worksession (this could conflict with how Council sets their agenda) <br />• Proclamations need to have full Council support to be brought forward for approval <br /> <br />Budget Impact <br /> <br />N/A <br /> <br />Attachment <br /> <br />N/A
