Council co‑posts home‑occupation ordinance to full council after brief motion

Following a long discussion on the composting ordinance, the committee briefly considered draft language on home occupations and carried a motion to send that draft to the full council for co‑posting to the Committee of the Whole.

Councilor Smith moved that the ordinance draft on home occupations be sent to the full council for co‑posting; the motion was seconded and recorded as carried by the chair. The chair said co‑posting allows the full council to have respectful dialogue across councilors to craft language collaboratively.

The procedural vote was recorded by the chair as carried; no substantive debate on the home‑occupation draft is recorded in this meeting. The item will appear on the full council agenda for further discussion and possible public hearings.
