The Buffalo City Committee on Legislation met Oct. 21 and took procedural actions on numerous business licenses, a used-car dealer application, lodging-house and wholesale-junk permits, and multiple planning items.

Most items were handled with short motions and seconds recorded in the meeting transcript; the committee frequently moved items "without recommendation" to the full City Council rather than making final approvals at committee. Several planning and neighborhood-shop items were tabled pending further hearings.

Where the transcript records only motions and seconds, no roll-call tallies or explicit final counts are recorded in the committee transcript. The transcript does not provide named movers for many motions; seconds are recorded for several items, frequently by Council Member Rivera or Council Member Glombek. The committee adjourned after the final motions.

Several items were tabled for further consideration, including multiple planning board findings and special-use permits. Items 17 and 18 were discussed in public hearings and referred to the full City Council without committee recommendation.
