RESOLUTION NO. 66 -601
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY ADOPTING A
RULE OF PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY DOES RESOLVE:
SECTION 1. The City Council finds and determines that it
is common practice in this and other cities to adopt routine motions
by the so- called "no objection" method, i.e., where the Mayor, after
stating the motion made and seconded, asks whether there are any
objections and, if none are so voiced, declares the motion unanimous
carried.
SECTION 2. The City Council further finds and declares that
such procedure is advantageous and expedites meetings, thereby avoid-
ing lengthy roll calls or voice votes.
SECTION 3. The City Council further finds and determines
that each Councilman who has subscribed his name hereto consents to
the rule herein set forth.
SECTION 4. The City Council therefore officially declares
that every Councilman consents to said "no objection" method of adopt-
ing motions, and further agrees that failure to raise an objection
at the proffered time shall be construed to be, and shall be entered
upon the minutes as, a "yes" or affirmative vote on the motion.
SECTION 5. Any Councilman may in writing rescind the autho.
ity granted hereby.
SECTION 6. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of
this Resolution.
ADOPTED AND APPROVED this 3d day of May, 1966.
