§ 205.07. Minutes.

Subdivision 1. Approval of minutes. The Clerk shall provide a copy of the minutes of each meeting to each Council member with the agenda of the next regular meeting. If such copies have been distributed to Council members in advance of the next regular meeting of the Council the minutes may be approved without verbatim reading. Amendments or corrections proposed by any member of the Council shall be made by the Clerk, but no amendment to which objection is raised by any member shall be made without the approval of a majority of the Council.

Subd. 2. General contents of minutes. The Clerk shall record all material matters considered by the Council in the minutes. Minutes shall be summary minutes. Ordinances, resolutions, communications and claims considered by the Council need not be recorded in full in the minutes if they appear in other permanent records of the Clerk and can be accurately identified from the description given in the minutes. The Council may in its discretion direct that any one of the above be fully set out in the minutes.

Subd. 3. Copies of ordinances, reports and resolutions. All ordinances and resolutions introduced before the Council shall be assigned a file number by the Clerk. Copies of any proposed ordinance shall be available for inspection by the public.
