DESCRIPTION: The Kanab city council consists of the mayor and council members who exercise the city's legislative and executive powers (see Utah Code, Unannotated, 1991, 10-3-101). The council is responsible for all aspects of city management, such as appointing city officials and setting their salaries, levying taxes, establishing a budget, maintaining public services and utilities, regulating activity within the city, and protecting the health and well being of residents. Kanab city council meeting minutes summarize the discussions held at council meetings. They indicate the date and place each meeting was held and identify those present. Bills authorized and paid by the council are itemized in the minutes (1924-1985). These minutes are the official record of the proceedings of regularly scheduled, special and emergency council meetings. They are adopted and approved by the council during their next public meeting. The minutes include the date, time, and meeting place; members present and absent; "the substance of all matters proposed, discussed, or decided, and record, by individual member, of votes taken; the names of citizens who appeared and the substance in brief of their testimony; any other information that any member requests be entered in the minutes" in accordance with UCA 52-4-203 (2) (2009).
