City of Aberdeen council thanks Boy Scouts and adjourns after brief voice vote
Summary
The City of Aberdeen council closed its meeting after a brief voice vote to adjourn. Councilman Johnson moved to adjourn, Councilman Lee Bell seconded, and the presiding speaker declared the motion carried following a single recorded "Aye."
The City of Aberdeen council ended its meeting Tuesday after a short procedural motion and a moment of thanks to visiting Boy Scouts.
An unidentified speaker announced a motion associated with Councilman Johnson and recorded a second by Councilman Lee Bell. The speaker said, "I'll second that," then called out, "Got a motion, councilman Johnson," and later, "Second, councilman Lee Bell." The council then proceeded to a voice vote on adjournment: "All in favor of adjournment, please say aye." A single "Aye" was recorded in the transcript and the presiding voice said, "Motion carries." The meeting concluded with the statement, "We are adjourned."
The exchange contained no substantive policy discussion or additional votes. The council acknowledged a group of Boy Scouts in the audience with thanks: "thank you to the boy scouts who, who came to join us here tonight," the speaker said, and added, "Hopefully, you get something out of this." Beyond the procedural motion to adjourn, the audio captured no further business or actions.
Following the voice vote, the meeting was adjourned. No roll-call vote or additional motions were recorded in the transcript.
