The Rules, Elections and Government Committee voted on a series of consent items and individual resolutions and motions. The committee approved consent items 8–18 and 19–22 by roll call and recorded a series of individual outcomes across agenda items 1–7 and an amendment to item 18.
Key outcomes:
- Consent block (items 8–18 and 19–22): Approved by roll call, five in favor, 5-0.
- Item 1: Motion to send Section 82231 (nomination process language) to relevant committees (Budget and Finance; Efficiency and Audit; Government Efficiency). The motion passed 5-0.
- Item 2 (recusal): Member Roman recused from consideration related to an air-quality board nomination (EQMD). The committee then voted 4-0 on the item with Roman recused; listed votes were Chair Harris Dawson, Member Yourselsky, Member Soto Martínez and Member Lee in favor.
- Item 3: A resolution introduced by Aren Park Padilla addressing inclusion in the city’s 2025–26 state legislative program to prevent concentration of housing ownership in fire-damaged areas and to prioritize family recovery over large investors was approved 5-0.
- Item 4: Called for a separate vote at the request of a member. The item passed by a 4-1 vote with Member Lee recorded as the lone no vote.

- Item 6: (See separate article) Resolution supporting expansion of the state film and television tax-credit cap to $750 million was approved 5-0.
- Item 7: A measure concerning limits on building in very high fire severity zones was called out for a separate vote; the committee recorded four yes votes and one no vote (4-1). A member said the current draft language was “too broad” for support but overall indicated intent to work on revisions before full council consideration.
- Item 18: A member proposed an update for the current year; the amendment was adopted.
Votes were recorded by roll call at the times shown on the agenda: Chair Marquiz Harris Dawson and Members Roman, Your Sousky (Yourselsky/Yeruslowski variants in the transcript), Soto Martínez and Lee. Where the transcript recorded only a tally, the committee’s roll call was used to record the five members present and their recorded votes.
Several items were procedural and transmitted to relevant city staff or committees for follow-up; where a member requested separate consideration, the committee handled those items by individual roll-call votes. The committee adjourned the items after completing the roll calls and confirming there was no further business on the table.
