Council canvasses May 2 election; staff reports all 19 propositions passed
Summary
Staff read the required canvass of returns for the May 2 special election and recorded vote totals and percentages for multiple propositions. Ramsey noted staff will present a June 8 work session to review charter implications before changes take effect.
Town staff presented the official canvass of returns for the May 2 special election covering 19 propositions and read vote totals into the record, saying "all propositions passed." For example, Ramsey read that "Proposition A passed 144 to 98, which is 59.5 to 40.5," and provided additional tallies for subsequent propositions as required by election code. She reminded council that the canvass window runs through May 13 and that the charter-implication work session is scheduled for June 8.
Council thanked staff and volunteers who administered the election and confirmed the canvass timing satisfied the Texas Election Code requirement to canvass in the statutory window. Ramsey said staff will provide a revamp of materials and distribute copies ahead of the June 8 discussion of charter changes.
