ENCLOSURES:
City Commission Roll Call
on legislative items
As you requested, this memorandum will confirm our advice
previously stated on the record that members of the City
Commission may only oast their votes on any item being considered
by them at the time the roll call is being taken.
No member may vote before the roll call; although, if a
member of the Commission has to leave the meeting prior to the
roll call, such member could make a statement on the record to
the effect that "if I were able to remain for the roll call, I
would be voting (for)(against) this item". The legal effect of
such a statement is nil and the statement is void of any
operative effect and the roll call vote should reflect the member
as being absent.
