[Vision2020] City Council and the Pledge

[Area Man (Dan C)]

Members of the Vizzz,

I was perusing the agenda for the last city council meeting and noticed
the Pledge of Allegiance was no longer an agenda item. I could not
attend the meeting since my delicate flower was working basketball games
(Go Bears!) and someone had to stay home and make sure the kids couldn't
escape from their restraints (yes, I'm being facetious).

I listened to the city's recording of the council meeting, but the
recording starts with Mayor Chaney saying: " . . . expression of
humanness. With that we'll call the meeting to order." Then they move
into the consent agenda and public comment period.

Does the council no longer begin meetings with the Pledge, or was it
just not recorded? If the council no longer begins with the Pledge, why
not?

curiosity's killin' me, and I ain't no cat,

DC
