Votes at a glance
- Items 9–13, 16–17 (ordinances): Committee reports were adopted and ordinances were held until enough members were present; the roll call adopting these items was recorded as 12 ayes. (Agenda items: ordinances for which public hearings had not been held.)
- Item 15 (ordinance fleshing out charter provisions on franchising and commissions): Adopted after a staff presentation. Final roll call recorded 14 ayes.
- Item 22 (grass-cycling / recycling program): Approved 12-0 when the council returned with a sufficient quorum. Public comment urged expanded recycling access; the council approved the item and sent it forthwith.
- Item 27 (conservation corps / community garden, Prop 5 finding): Council asserted jurisdiction and approved the Prop 5 finding and the project on the roll call, 14 ayes.
- Item 29 (use of 1% art fund from a Studio City parking structure): Approved on roll call, 13 ayes, to move the collected art funds into an alternate art fund given constraints on completing the original project.
Notes and context: several ordinance items were initially held until a 12-member quorum was present for first reading or adoption; the council revisited those items later in the session. Several items were continued to the next day to allow staff or the city engineer to be present. The transcript shows motions, seconds and the tabulated roll-call votes as listed above.
