RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING AN ANNUAL SUCCESSION PROHIBITION FOR
COMMON COUNCIL MEMBERS TO SERVE AS PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE
WHEREAS, I.C. 36-4-6-8(b) provides that legislative body
of a third class city shall choose from its members a president
to preside whenever the executive (Mayor) is
pro tempore
absent; and,
WHEREAS,
it is believed by the majority of the members of
the Common Council of the City of Jeffersonville, Indiana, that
the citizens of Jeffersonville will best be served by
prohibiting the annual succession of any one member serving as
president pro tempore of the Common Council of the City of
Jeffersonville.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Common Council of
the City of Jeffersonville that it shall elect a president
pro tempore from its members as required by Indiana law, but
that no member so elected shall be allowed to succeed himself
in the following year. Furthermore, once a council member has
held the position as president pro tempore of the Council and
has relinquished that title for a period of twelve (12)
consecutive months, that member shall thereafter be entitled to
reelection as president pro tempore by a majority of the Common
Council.
