Council votes to reconsider pavilion size amid tensions
In a recent city council meeting, members voted to suspend Rule 20, allowing for a reconsideration of a previous vote regarding the size of a proposed pavilion. The motion to suspend the rule was unanimously approved through a roll call vote, with all present councilors in favor.

Following the suspension, Councilor Del Rosario initiated a motion to reconsider the pavilion size, which was seconded by Councilor Reyes. The council proceeded to vote on this motion, which also passed unanimously, effectively resetting the discussion on the pavilion project.

The council then moved to discuss an upcoming event scheduled for July 6, with plans to accommodate potential scheduling conflicts. Councilors expressed gratitude towards the event organizers for their flexibility in changing the date. However, a debate arose regarding the inclusion of representatives from Semana Hispana in the discussion, leading to a procedural challenge against the council president's ruling that limited their participation.

The council is set to continue discussions on the pavilion and related events in future meetings, as they navigate the complexities of community engagement and event planning.
