Notes on voting and records

- Where the transcript records votes, the clerk announced "All voting yes. Motion carries." The transcript did not provide individual roll-call tallies with names for those motions; therefore vote tallies are recorded as unanimous as announced in the meeting.

- Several ordinances remained in public-hearing or second-reading status and were set for future meetings (Ordinance Nos. 4192, 4195, 4196, and second reading for 4197). Ordinance No. 4193 (compensation ordinance) passed on third reading.
