and City Clerk Mary Jean Sell.
The purpose of the meeting was
discussion of the ordinance regarding the definition of who would collect the
CAPC tax.
Ms. Lindblad said the meeting was
illegal and should not continue because the steps for calling a special meeting
as outlined in the Municipal Code had not been properly followed.
Bill King, publisher of The Lovely County Citizen newspaper asked
if the rules could be suspended and the meeting held since all of the council
members, the city attorney and representatives of the press were present.
Mr. Ott said he did not want any
action or vote taken during the meeting thrown out later on a technicality. He
asked for the discussion to be put on the agenda for the next council meeting.
Mr. Berry moved to adjourn at 6:50
p.m. Mr. Falotico seconded.
