Votes at a glance: Revere council actions — crypto-ATM ban, appointments, memorials and housekeeping items
At the meeting the Revere City Council handled several routine and ceremonial items in a series of short motions and communications.

Key outcomes recorded in the meeting record:
- Crypto-ATM kiosks and similar on-site automated cryptocurrency cash-out kiosks: The council approved a motion asking the mayor and city officials to pursue an ordinance or policy limiting crypto kiosks operated in city spaces (motion recorded as approved on the floor).
- Appointments and communications to parks and recreation: Multiple communications from the mayor setting appointments and reappointments to the Parks and Recreation Commission were placed on the calendar for November 24; appointment hearings were scheduled and referred as routine communications.
- Christopher Columbus statue nomination: Members of the public urged the council to support nomination of the Christopher Columbus statue at Saint Anthony’s for historic designation. A motion to forward a nomination to the Massachusetts Historical Commission was presented during the meeting; the meeting record shows strong public comment in favor. The transcript does not clearly record a final roll-call outcome for the historical-designation motion in the sections provided (status: not specified in transcript excerpt).
- Lincoln School playground memorial: A motion to dedicate the Lincoln School early-childhood playground in memory of Chris Chavaria was presented with public supporters; the motion was recorded as presented and supported in the public comment section (final disposition not specified in provided excerpt).
- Election reminders and civic notices: The council approved a motion asking the mayor and the police department to place electronic reminders around the city reminding residents of the November 4 election date.
- Street lighting and safety: A motion directing city engineering/public works to evaluate lighting conditions near St. Anthony’s and Breed Street for safety was approved; staff were asked to coordinate on potential lighting improvements.

Several other routine items and calendar motions were taken without extended debate, including commendatory certificates and scheduling items. Where the transcript excerpt did not record a final vote count, the disposition is listed as “not specified” or as noted in the minutes.
