Preambulatory phrases should be the Present Participle form of the verb (usually ending in -ING). Even though a resolution consists of only once sentence, each Preambulatory Clause should start with a capital letter, and the first word or words should be made to stand out by underlining, emboldening or italicising.

It is bad practice to use any Preambulatory Phrase or Operative Phrase more than once, there are plenty to choose from.

Here is a list of some of the available choices. Feel free to add any others.
