Committee member moves to table approval of Public Safety Committee minutes after question about union support

At a Public Safety Committee meeting, a committee member moved to table approval of the draft meeting minutes after discussion about whether to include a remark identifying which union members had supported an individual. The clerk was asked to circulate the minutes for correction and review.

The committee member said the minutes sometimes require later corrections and that the group could not approve them immediately. "We can approve them at the next Public Safety Committee meeting in May," the committee member said. Another participant questioned whether the minutes should note who in the union was supporting "him," and one speaker characterized that as "an anonymous comment by the sheriff," prompting debate about whether to record that detail.

Following that exchange, a participant asked the chair for a procedural motion: "have someone make a motion to table the minutes till the next meeting." A committee member then stated, "I'll move to table." The transcript records the motion but does not record a second or any vote on the motion.

Because the record ends after the motion, the minutes remain unapproved and are to be circulated for review; the committee expects to consider approval at its next meeting in May. The transcript does not show whether the motion to table was seconded or approved.
