In a recent special council meeting, the city council addressed serious allegations against an individual under consular authority, leading to a decisive action regarding the Public Utilities Commission. The meeting commenced at 8:30 a.m. and included a closed session to discuss the preliminary considerations of the allegations.

Following the closed session, the council transitioned to open session to deliberate on the matter. Councilor Liz Motley proposed a motion to remove Commissioner Tezzak from the Public Utilities Commission, which received support from Councilor Paulson. After a brief discussion, the motion was put to a vote, resulting in a 6-1 approval for the removal.

The council concluded the special meeting shortly after, with no further items on the agenda. The meeting was adjourned, and the council moved on to the next scheduled committee meeting. This action reflects the council's commitment to accountability and governance within its public utilities oversight.
