Details on roll-call results: where the transcript provided specific roll call totals during final-action votes, the meeting record noted eight ayes on several committee-reported bills; other items were approved by voice vote. If a specific numerical tally was not read into the record, the transcript indicates the measure was approved without a numeric roll-call in the minutes.
These items were presented as committee reports; the meeting record shows they were moved, called for final action and recorded as passed or approved as noted above. Items that were introduced earlier in the meeting but set for committee or public hearing (for example, Bill 14-52 directing the Allegheny County Board of Elections to place a referendum question) were not finalized at this session and are not listed here as passed.
