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,

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
