Lancaster
City Council
NB1. Approve Introduction of Ordinance Establishing a Flag Policy
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve introduction of Ordinance No. ____, establishing a flag policy for City-owned
or City-maintained flagpoles.
2. Find that this item is not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality
Act.
The primary goal of this policy is to designate and clarify that City flagpoles are not intended
to serve as a forum for free expression or speech by the public. Instead, they will be used for
the display of official flags approved by the City Council. This policy will outline the specific
flags that are permitted to be flown on City flagpoles, i.e., the United States Flag, the State of
California Flag, the County of Los Angeles Flag and the City of Lancaster Flag.
