Unanimous approval
Item #27  Revision of Council Annotated Minutes to Include all Motions Voted On
New language submitted by City Manager and accepted by resolution author, Arreguin.

Vote to accept language:  Unanimous

Councilmember Comments:
Arrguin:  This means that all motions made, seconded and voted on will be recorded – not just the successful motion.  This was done historically and should be reinstated.  The clerk already records these votes so it is minimal work to include in the annotated agenda.  Good for more transparency.
Move the resolution
Capitelli:  I do think if I was nit picking all is recorded in the video and if anyone wants to see the detail then people can go back and look at it.  It is on line and available.
Wozniak:  Does the clerk record all these motions that doesnt result in an action?  So if a motion is not seconded it would not be included.

Vote:
Unanimous approval
