The council voted to accept a resolution "to serve out the results of the Aug. 20 general municipal elections," and later approved a motion to adjourn. The resolution was presented, a motion and second were made, and a roll-call vote recorded five "Yay" votes.
The action follows staff remarks that they were "taking care of tabulating those" ballots and that they could "take care of recording of the visual." The transcript shows district-level readouts naming candidates and districts before the council requested the formal motion on the resolution.
Councilors moved promptly to a roll call. Councilor Bobby Tapley voted "Yay." Councilor Eric Brown voted "Yay." Councilor Chris Brown voted "Yay." Councilor Phillips voted "Yay." The chair also voted "Yay." No "No" votes, abstentions or recusals were recorded in the transcript. The transcript does not specify who made the motion or who seconded it by name.
Earlier remarks in the meeting included back-and-forth about counting and whether certain items should be counted; the transcript excerpts include repeated phrases such as "Do not count" and "Count," and later statements identifying districts and candidate names (for example, references to District 1 and to individuals identified as Buck Collin, Curtis Bayard, David Duck and Cynthia Edwards). The meeting record in the transcript says only that staff were "taking care of tabulating those" and did not provide a detailed tally by district in the portions supplied.
A motion to adjourn was made and seconded; the transcript records the chair calling the question and an affirmative "All in favor?" with the meeting then ending. The transcript does not give the municipality name, the date of the council meeting, the formal resolution number or further procedural details such as the identity of the motion mover or seconder.
What happened: discussion about tabulation and visual recordkeeping by staff; a motion to accept a resolution related to the Aug. 20 election results; a roll-call vote with five recorded "Yay" votes that accepted the resolution; and a motion to adjourn that was carried. Next steps, implementation details, and any formal certification language or document numbers were not specified in the provided transcript excerpts.
