Summary

Councilors nominated and elected leadership by roll call: 'Counselor Olsen' was elected council president after nominations; Councilor Kern was elected vice president. The clerk outlined nomination and tie-breaking procedures.

The Superior Common Council elected its leadership during the April 18 meeting following a nominations and roll-call process described by the clerk.

Councilor Garfield nominated Dan (transcript contains both Dan Wilson and Dan Olson/Olsen references) for council president, seconded by Councilor Kern. The council conducted a roll-call vote, and the clerk declared “Counselor Olsen is elected president.”

For vice president, Councilor Austin nominated Councilor Kern; Councilor Fennessy seconded. The council again voted by roll call and elected Councilor Kern as vice president.

The clerk had explained that a candidate must receive six votes to carry and described tie-breaking procedures including additional rounds of voting or secret ballots if necessary. Council President Olsen later thanked colleagues and reminded members to complete committee-signup sheets for assignments.
