Council adopts Constitution Week proclamation
Summary
La Pine council approved Proclamation 2026-02 recognizing Constitution Week after a brief staff report citing U.S. Code authorization; the measure passed by roll call after a motion and second.
The La Pine City Council approved Proclamation 2026-02 recognizing Constitution Week for 2026 after a staff report and a roll-call vote.
City staff told the council the proclamation follows a public law in the United States Code that authorizes the president to encourage local observance. "It is just basically recognizing and not codifying, but putting under observation the Constitution as guiding document of our form of government," a staff member said during the presentation. Council President Van Damme moved to approve the proclamation; the council recorded votes of Aye from Councilor Curtis, Councilor Shields and Council President Van Damme, and the motion passed.
The proclamation is symbolic and does not change local law; staff described it as a yearly observance. The city recorder completed the roll-call vote. No public testimony was recorded on the item and no follow-up action was assigned.
