PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
INVOCATION/MOMENT OF SILENCE: The City Council invites members of the clergy, as well as interested
members of the public in the City of Clearlake, to voluntarily offer an invocation before the beginning of
its meetings for the benefit and blessing of the City Council. This opportunity is voluntary and invocations
are to be less than three minutes, offered in a solemn and respectful tone, and directed at the City Council.
Invocational speakers who do not abide by these simple rules of respect and brevity shall be given a
warning and/or not invited back to provide a subsequent invocation for a reasonable period of time, as
determined appropriate by the City. This policy is not intended, and shall not be implemented or
construed in any way, to affiliate the City Council with, not express the City Council's preference for, any
faith or religious denomination. Rather, this policy is intended to acknowledge and express the City
Council's respect for the diversity of religious denominations and faith represented and practiced among
the citizens of Clearlake. If a scheduled invocational speaker does not appear at the scheduled meeting,
the Mayor will ask that the City Council observe a moment of silence in lieu of the invocation. More
information about the City's invocation policy is available upon request by contacting the Administrative
Services Director/City Clerk at (707) 994-8201x106 or via email at mswanson@clearlake.ca.us.
