Speaker 2 (identified in the transcript as chairwoman-elect Jana Swearingen Washington) said the council accepted $60,000 from the Tennessee Department of Disability and Aging to support senior programming at the Josephine Lewis and Frasier Riley Senior Centers. The transcript states the council "accepted" the funds; no roll-call or vote totals are provided.

The transcript additionally notes that Councilman Spinoza sponsored a resolution honoring the sacrifice of service members and their families and that Councilwoman Cooper Sutton sponsored a resolution recognizing First Baptist Church of Lauderdale's 160th anniversary. The record shows sponsorships but does not state whether the resolutions were adopted or include vote tallies.
