Summary

The council approved a certificate authorizing the chair and vice chair to sign payroll and receipts so routine payments need not come before the full committee; motion passed by voice vote.

The council voted to authorize a certificate that allows the chair and vice chair to sign payroll and receipts, avoiding the need to present routine payment documents to the full committee. The chair said that otherwise such items would have to come before the whole committee and asked for a motion to authorize the signature certificate; the motion was moved and carried by voice vote.

The action is administrative: it updates internal signing authority for routine financial processing and was approved without recorded roll-call counts. Staff will process the certificate so payments can be handled by the designated officers.
