Committee defers review of Ordinance 2025-13 pending additional research

The Ordinance Committee voted to defer consideration of Ordinance 2025-13 after a committee member said staff research on the item was incomplete. Chair opened the item for discussion and Councilman Oney requested postponement until the staff member referred to as 'Tony' can finish his research; the chair put the motion to defer, it was seconded and the committee voted "Aye."

Councilman Oney explained he had not received information from a colleague about the ordinance and asked that the item be moved to the next meeting so Tony could complete his work. The chair confirmed the motion to defer was made and seconded and the committee approved the deferral without recorded opposition. The committee did not take further action on the substance of the ordinance at this meeting.
