Detroit City Council recessed until 5:20 p.m. as member reports Mr. Corley needs more time to "crunch" numbers

The Detroit City Council convened and completed roll call before briefly recessing to allow additional time for a requested review of numbers.

At the start of the meeting the clerk called members by name; Council member Scott Benson responded and others were recorded as 'Present.' A speaker stated, "We have a quorum," clearing the council to proceed with business.

Council member Scott Benson reported that he had spoken with "Mr. Corley," saying, "He is requesting additional time to crunch a few more numbers. So, colleagues, we will stand in recess until 05:20." The council then recessed and reconvened with brief welcoming remarks at the stated time.

The transcript records no formal motions, votes on ordinances, or substantive policy discussion in the provided segments. The only action recorded was the procedural recess to 5:20 p.m. for the requested additional work; the meeting was expected to continue after that recess.
