Votes were typically recorded as "motion carries" in the meeting minutes; where the council used a roll-call vote (notably for the amendment concerning the 8th District vacancy), the clerk recorded individual 'Aye' responses during the meeting. If readers need the official ordinance numbers, full roll-call tallies or the council packet, the city clerk's office publishes the official minutes and backup materials.
