Council appointed members to several boards — including Jacob M. Hall to the Police Civil Service Board — and approved the consent calendar (items 7A–7J) unanimously.

During routine business, the council completed a series of appointments and approved the consent calendar.

Appointments: Jacob M. Hall was selected for the Police Civil Service Board following an electronic tally (Hall received the most votes). Patrick Bowers and Jerry Edwin Fernandez were appointed to the Miscellaneous Civil Service Board. Cornelio Gutierrez Lozano was appointed to the Historic Preservation Commission following the recorded votes and motions presented by the vice mayor.
