Councilmember moves to continue $370,000 contract (Item 22) to March 25 after closed session request

The City Council moved on March 14, 2025, to continue agenda Item 22—Contract No. 146250, for $370,000—until a special session on March 25, 2025. Councilmember Jorozovsky moved “pido que recomendación tres” (requesting Recommendation 3 and continuance); the motion was seconded by Councilmember Soto Martínez and carried by recorded vote.

The item had been set for a closed-session discussion earlier in the meeting. After the closed session the council returned to open session and took the continuance motion, with the clerk announcing an affirmative count of 11 votes in favor when the roll was closed. The motion directs that consideration of Recommendation 3 related to the BNFE report and Contract No. 146250 be continued to March 25, 2025; no award or contract execution occurred on March 14.

Council President Marquiz Harris Danson presided over the meeting and opened the vote. Councilmember Jorozovsky placed the motion on the record in open session: “pido que recomendación tres” (I move Recommendation 3), and Councilmember Soto Martínez seconded. The clerk closed the roll and read the tally as eleven in favor. No individual yes/no votes by name were recorded in the public transcript for this item.

Clarifying details: Contract No. 146250; amount stated in the meeting: $370,000; continuance/next hearing date: March 25, 2025. The transcript records that Item 22 had been requested for a closed (a puerta cerrada) session earlier in the agenda and that the continuance motion was made after the council returned to open session.

No final contract award or expenditure was approved at this meeting; the council’s action was limited to continuing consideration. The council did not provide additional public detail or staff analysis in the public record at the time of the continuance.
