- Appointed Emma (applicant) to the Mayor's Youth Council: The commission received one application for an open full member seat and voted to appoint the applicant (motion, second; vote: approved).

- Reduced public-comment time limit from five to three minutes for the evening's meetings: The commission voted to change the standard three‑ or five‑minute limit (the motion was seconded and carried) to allow more speakers given the concurrent workshop and commission meeting.

Notes on procedure and attribution

The transcript records motions, seconds and voice votes for the items listed above but does not provide roll-call tallies (yes/no by individual commissioner) for these routine procedural items in the excerpted transcript. When a named mover or seconder appeared on the record, the transcript sometimes omitted the speaker's full name; in those cases the motion is recorded as moved/seconded in the meeting minutes and approved by voice vote.
