Bryan City Council names Edge mayor pro tem, approves two commission appointments

The Bryan City Council on Tuesday in January (date not specified) voted to appoint Council Member Edge to serve as mayor pro tem for the next two years and approved two commission appointments.

A council member moved to appoint Council Member Edge as mayor pro tem for a two-year term and a fellow council member seconded the motion. The mayor called for the vote by saying, "All in favor of the motion, say aye." The transcript records affirmative responses and the mayor's vote call; the motion passed.

The council then considered a single motion to fill two quasi-judicial seats. The motion sought to appoint Michael Record to serve as the required registered architect on the Historic Landmark Commission and to name Anthony Rose as the Place 6 alternate on the Building and Standing Coating Commission. A council member made the motion and another seconded it. After the mayor asked for a vote and members responded "aye," the mayor stated, "Motion carries unanimous." The council then closed out the first regular meeting.

Council action filled a leadership role on the council and two commission posts that the council identified as required or designated by place. The meeting record does not provide a full roll-call tally for the mayor pro tem appointment; the transcript reflects the mayor's vote calls and the spoken responses recorded at the meeting.
