Meeting canceled for lack of quorum after complaint filed against three absent council members

Unidentified Speaker announced that a scheduled meeting would not proceed because a quorum was not present and said a public complaint had been filed with the police chief against three absent council members.

The speaker began by asking the room to assemble so the meeting could start, then stated, "I've just filed a public complaint with our police chief on the other 3 council members," and repeatedly noted that "they're not in the building." The speaker also said the mayor was present in the room but that the mayor had indicated there would be no meeting because there was not a forum.

The announcement included repeated questions about the whereabouts of other council members. The speaker asked, "Where is everybody?" and later, "Why are they hiding?" No council members spoke during the recorded exchange and no motions, votes, or agenda items were taken.

The only recorded formal action during this brief session was the statement that a public complaint had been filed with the police chief; no outcome or follow-up schedule for that complaint was provided in the transcript. The meeting was not convened for official business and no votes were recorded.

The record does not identify the absent council members by name, does not describe the substance of the complaint beyond the filing, and does not specify next steps or a date for reconvening. The mayor's presence was mentioned by the speaker but the mayor did not speak in the provided transcript.

Because no formal business occurred, there are no motions, ordinances, or votes to report from this session. Any further action or response to the complaint would be handled outside the meeting record and was not described on the record.
