Do~igherty City Attoraey REiERENCES: ENCLOSURES, As you requested, this memorandum will oonfirm our advioe previously stated on the record that members of the City Commission may only oast their votes oa 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 Dell, such member could make a statement on the record to the effect that "if = were able to remain for the roll call , Z 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 aad the roll call vote should reflect the member as being absent. Please note also that any member of the Commission can vote on any item despite the fact that such member may not be in his or her seat at the time the roll call is being taken. So long as the member is withia your earshot; i.e., within the range of your hearing, his or her vote should be recorded. To assist you, we are sending a Dopy hereof to the Mayor and each Commissioner with the suggestion that an audible response be given by each of taem to you at the time you address the member in the order of taking the vote. In the absence of such audible response, you should record the member's vote as you have interpreted his or her gesture (nodding of head, "thumbs up", eta.) and announce "Commissioner votes (yes)Cno)". In this manner, there will be a min~±rum possibility of error or mistake is the taking of any roll call vote aad there will also be substantial compliance with the requirements of law.
