The Chair moved that the council “investigate the complaints against the city report and hire a forensic county firm to conduct the investigation.” The motion also authorized the mayor to work with McPherson and Diaz (and David, added to the list) to find a qualified forensic firm. "I move we investigate the complaints against the city report and hire a forensic county firm to conduct the investigation," the Chair said.
