Council approved two separate motions to allow members to participate in the meeting by electronic means under Council Rule 3(d)(4)(b): one for Council Member Stephanie Lynch and one for Council Member Sarah Auberbacher. Both motions passed on voice or roll-call votes recorded as "aye" by the members present.

Council then voted on a motion to approve appointment recommendations continued from the Feb. 10 meeting. The motion passed. Roll-call responses recorded in the transcript show Council Member Nicole Gibson voted no and Council Member Abu Bakr recorded an abstention; all other named members voted in favor. The council president and city attorney were reported to have reviewed potential conflicts related to one appointee and concluded that standard abstention and other safeguards addressed the concerns.

The consent agenda (three ordinances) and minutes for the Feb. 10 informal and formal meetings were adopted as presented in separate votes; roll-call on the consent agenda recorded ayes by the members present.
