§ 103106 Board Action Requirements

This law says that whenever the board does something, it has to write it down as a motion, a resolution, or an ordinance.

Key Takeaways

  • •Board actions must be put in writing.
  • •Only three formats are allowed: motion, resolution, or ordinance.
  • •Writing it down makes the decision clear and official.

Example

A city council wants to approve a new playground for the neighborhood.

The council can't just say "yes" and move on; they must record the decision as a motion, a resolution, or an ordinance so everyone knows exactly what was decided.
