Summary
Pataskala City Council approved the consent agenda and on second reading passed a motion to amend Ordinance 2026-4519 by substitution; the amendment passed by roll call and the consent agenda carried unanimously.
Pataskala City Council approved its consent agenda and moved an amendment to Ordinance 2026-4519 forward after a roll-call vote Tuesday night.
The action came after Councilmember Tommy moved to approve the consent agenda, seconded by Brandon; the roll call returned unanimous 'yes' votes and the consent agenda passed. The council later took up Ordinance 2026-4519 for a second reading and a motion to amend the ordinance by substitution was made and seconded. The motion to amend passed on roll call.
Why it matters: Consent agendas bundle routine items and allow the council to approve several administrative actions at once. The amendment to Ordinance 2026-4519 means the ordinance will proceed with the substituted language agreed by councilors at this meeting; specifics of the substitution were presented on the council dais.
Details: The public record shows the consent agenda motion was moved by Tommy and seconded by Brandon. During roll call the following members were recorded as voting 'yes': Hamshire, Galick, Bowman, Wright, Wegby, Brook and Lee; the chair announced the consent agenda passed. The motion to amend Ordinance 2026-4519 was also approved by roll call with the same affirmative outcome.
The council did not discuss substantive changes to the ordinance on the floor during the roll call; the motion to amend was procedural and carried. The council will proceed with the ordinance under the amended language as the next steps in the legislative process.
The meeting moved on to other business after the votes; no final adoption (third reading or codification) was recorded during this session.
