Cornelius City Council Guidelines & Rules

Council need rules to decide questions on debating, voting, membership, attendance and agendas. The rules are intended to serve as a guide for the Council. One of the missions of the City Council is to work with the residents of Cornelius and provide a positive atmosphere at Council meetings. These rules provide the basic outline required to work together. Ultimately, the Council may need to vary from these rules from time to time to best serve the public interest and the first rule provides the Council with that authority.
