Council approves sale of forfeited weapons to local buyer over one dissenting vote
Summary
Council voted 7–1 on first reading to authorize sale of confiscated and forfeited weapons to King's Firearms and More LLC under Ordinance 76-26; Councilor Jordan recorded the lone 'no' vote.
Council considered Ordinance 76-26, authorizing the mayor to accept the bid from King's Firearms and More LLC for purchase of confiscated and forfeited weapons. Councilor Gordon moved the ordinance; most members voted to pass the measure on first reading.
The vote was 7 in favor and 1 opposed; Councilor Jordan registered the single 'no' vote. Councilors did not expand on the rationale in the public record beyond the roll call and the clerks reading of the ordinance text. The ordinance now proceeds through the council's reading process.
Next steps: the ordinance will move forward following first-reading approval; any contract execution will follow city procurement and legal review processes.
