HIRATA DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY April 24, 1995 CITY OF CARLSBAD 1200 CARLSBAD VILLAGE DRIVE CARLSBAD. CALIFORNIA 92008-1989 (619) 434-2891 I FAX: (619) 434-8367 6 Ms. Holly Gail Baumann 2640 Cazadero Drive Carlsbad, CA 92009 Dear Ms. Baumann: Thank you for your recent letter to Mayor Lewis regarding prayers at the beginning of the City Council Meetings. I have been asked to respond to your concerns. The City of Carlsbad requests members of the clergy that are invited to give an invocation the beginning of a City Council meeting, make the invocation non-denominational in naturc A copy of the letter sent to those clergy members is attached for your information. With regard to the legality of opening a legislative session with a prayer, the United States Supreme Court in Marsh v. Chambers (1983) 77LEd.2d 1019, found that legislative bodies may begin sessions with short "legislative prayers" because of the voluntary nature of the meetings. The Court found specifically, the atmosphere at the opening of a legislative session permits adults to freely enter and leave with little comment, and for any number of reasons, no attempt is made to force any person to listen or participate in the prayer. The court, therefore, found that legislative bodies may begin sessions with a prayer. I hope this addresses the concerns outlined in your letter. Please feel free to contact my office with any additional questions. sa&=Q Q, k RONALD R.

I am offended by the blatant us Christianity to open a meeting of the city. It doesn't matter t whether you alternate among ali the religious groups in Carlsbad to these meetings; it is' not appropriate ta invoke the name of Zesus 0: other religious figure to open a city meeting. what steps must I take to insure that city meetings will no longc opened religiously?
