Notes on voting record: the transcript consistently records motions, seconds and the phrase "Motion so carries" or approval by raised hands but does not list per-member vote tallies for these items. If a formal roll-call is required for a particular item, the transcript did not capture it; minutes or the clerk's roll may contain detailed tallies.
