Councilor King opened the formal action by saying, "I move to approve the 5-year CIP plan." Councilor Flynn seconded the motion. Chair Davis called for a show of hands and announced, "I see five hands including my own. The matter carries," formally adopting the plan.

After the approval, Councilor King moved to adjourn. The motion passed by the same show of hands and the committee adjourned.
