Notes on procedure and timing

Several items were introduced, and in at least one case (the speed-limit ordinance) the council requested additional study before final ordinance adoption. The DollarRide procurement discussion resulted in a unanimous substitute motion directing staff to return with split-provider contract drafts; staff indicated the revised documents will be brought back at a subsequent meeting in November.
