The roll call recorded all present members voting yes: Mrs. Franzen, Mrs. Hoover, Ms. Royce, Mrs. Bolling, Mr. Moore and Mr. Gertin. Council asked Mr. Provins to come to the front of chambers after the vote so he could assume the duties and relieve Ms. Royce from covering two roles during meetings.
