Resolution - City Secretary:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to utilize a facsimile signature for any legal instrument or document permitted by Chapter 618 of the Texas Government Code.
Item Summary
In accordance with Article IX, Section 11 of the City of Lubbock Charter, the Mayor of the City of Lubbock is required to sign all official documents.
Chapter 618 of the Texas Government Code (618.001 – 618.009) “Uniform Facsimile Signature of Public Officials, permits the Mayor to execute, authenticate, certify, or endorse or authorize to be executed, authenticated, certified, or endorsed with the Mayor’s facsimile signature instead of a manual signature for certain legal instruments and documents. This does not include ordinances or resolutions. Section 618.003 states that an officer may use the officer’s facsimile signature instead of the officer’s manual signature, if authorized by the governing body. This resolution would allow for the Mayor to use a facsimile signature.
Fiscal Impact
For 25 licenses and 2,500 digital signatures using the software DocuSign, the cost would be approximately $18,175.31.
