COUNCIL AND STAFF DISCUSSION OF PRESENTATION TOPICS

NEW BUSINESS
Councilmember Spencer presented a resolution to the City Clerk for reading which had
not been distributed to the City Council prior to the meeting. The resolution read as
follows:
We as the City Council representing the citizens of the City of Jefferson recognize the
significance of the historical date of October 7th, 1864 as a day that lives were spared due
to General Sterling Price’s decision not to attack the City of Jefferson in the American
Civil War. This resolution in no way shall be construed as being sympathetic to the cause
of the Confederacy. This date shall serve as a day of remembrance and reflection. The
City of Jefferson must continue to look forward, but there are times when we must look
back to see where we have been and how far we have come as a community. This is a
part of our history that is forever linked to our Count ry’s and should be remembered and
revered for what it is, a celebration of life and a community spared from the ravages of
war.
During discussion between City Councilmembers and Staff, City Attorney Ryan
Moehlman indicated the Sunshine Law requires a resolution to be voted on, must be
brought before City Council at least twenty-four hours before the City Council meeting.
Therefore, at this time, City Council could not vote on the resolution itself, but could vote
on whether the resolution would be brought forth at the next City Council meeting for
discussion and possible vote.
Councilmember Spencer motioned to request the resolution be brought to the January
18th City Council meeting. Councilmember Spicer seconded the motion. The motion failed
by the following roll-call vote:
Aye: Fitzwater, Hensley, Schreiber, Spencer, and Spicer
Nay: Kemna, Lester, Vogt, Ward, and Wiseman
