Recusals and continuances noted in the transcript:
- Council members recused themselves on items involving potential conflicts (transcript indicates recusals were filed with the city secretary for items M&C 25-0384 and M&C 25-0382 and others where employment/affiliation created a conflict). These recusals were announced prior to votes on the affected items. (see transcript s1679–s1772) - Several items were continued or moved to the June 10 meeting at the applicant’s request (M&C 25-0316, and public hearing pairs including M&C 25-0320 / ZC-24-162).

Notes on the record: the meeting transcript frequently records that motions carried but does not always provide roll-call vote tallies or named yes/no votes; where the transcript records the names of individual yes/no votes they are captured in the detailed article for that item. For any adopted ordinance or item requiring formal implementation, the official ordinance text or adopted resolution filed with the city secretary should be consulted for the definitive vote tally and final language.
