Summary

Councilmember Mateo Bedoya told the council he was "participating remotely under assembly bill 2449" and asked for permission to attend the meeting by teleconference because emergency circumstances prevented in-person attendance and no other adults were present in his room.
A motion to approve Bedoya's request "to participate in the meeting via teleconference per a b 24 49" was made and seconded. The council conducted a roll call and the chair reported the motion passed with a tally recorded as 4 yes, 2 no and 1 abstention.
Bedoya's request was granted under the authority he cited in the meeting; the transcript does not include additional detail about the nature of the emergency or whether any conditions were attached to the continued remote participation. The council proceeded with roll call and then moved later to convene into closed session on the agenda's Item 5a.
