Summary

After readings, the proposed amendment to Chapter 605 to regulate alarm businesses and systems (Bill No. 2025-27 / Ord. No. 1490) failed on a roll-call vote; one alderman voted nay and one member was absent, leaving the measure without the required majority.

The City Attorney presented Bill No. 2025-27, described as an ordinance amending Article II of Chapter 605 to add a new section regulating alarm businesses and systems. The measure was read a second time and placed for final passage. Mayor Kevin McFadden asked, "Shall Bill No 2025-27 become Ordinance No 1490?"

The roll call recorded Alderman Lahmeyer voting nay, Alderman Bohl voting aye, Alderman Breeden voting aye, and Alderman Kramme absent. The record notes the ordinance failed because a majority of the elected Board did not vote in the affirmative. The transcript does not include the ordinance text debated or the specific provisions that generated the nay vote; the City Attorney provided the bill explanation on the record.
