The mayor announced appointments for the prosecuting attorney and for a newly created chief assistant prosecuting attorney were scheduled for the council's 7:00 p.m. meeting.
Council members discussed whether to take a formal vote at that later meeting. One council member said, "I'd like a formal vote," and staff and the mayor acknowledged the request; staff indicated the ordinance and appointment details would be handled at the 7:00 meeting. The transcript records the scheduling and a council member's request for a formal vote but does not include the names of the appointees or a formal vote in the agenda-review session.
The council also noted that explanatory language and ordinance items related to the appointments would be included later in the meeting packet and considered at the scheduled meeting time.
