Cleveland City Council suspends rules and adopts multiple ordinances and resolutions in unanimous votes
During the meeting the council read a suite of ordinances and resolutions and voted to suspend the rules and place several of those items on final passage. Motions to suspend the rules were moved by Council member Spencer and seconded by Council member Casey; the roll-call recorded in the transcript lists 14 yeas on the suspensions and subsequent final-passage votes.

Legislation read and moved to final passage included (as read into the record): ordinances to amend the city's water pollution control revenue-bond authorization and associated trust agreements; a cooperative agreement with the Ohio Water Development Authority to refinance certain water pollution control revenue bonds; multiple public-improvement authorizations for streets, sewers and pedestrian/bicycle projects; authorizations to procure heavy and light vehicles and equipment; an ordinance authorizing the clerk of council to purchase a cloud-based legislative management system; an ordinance to rename the Department of Economic Development to the Department of Development and related organizational changes; and a transfer and amendment of $350,000 within the general fund as listed in the meeting record.

Several resolutions declaring the city’s intent to vacate alleys and portions of streets and other routine administrative items were also declared on final passage with recorded 14-0 roll calls. The transcript shows tabling of a handful of prior items as noted by the clerk; a later roll-call approving tabling likewise recorded 14 ayes.

The transcript contains multiple formal roll-call recordings with identical tallies ("14 ayes") for the motions to suspend the rules and for passage of the listed items. The text read into the record gives ordinance and resolution numbers and brief titles or descriptions for each item; the clerk and council did not, in the recorded portion, provide extended debate or amendments on those items. The meeting adjourned to the call of the chair and the transcript lists the next council meeting date.
