Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, January 29, 2018 <br />Page 11 <br />one meeting that happens on that particular Monday night so I just made other plans to do it. <br />That's all. I have a commitment to Council. Council comes first. <br />Council President Saponaro asked, do you have any objection to moving it back to 8:00? <br />Mrs. Mills replied, no. <br />Council President Saponaro asked, you have no objection? <br />Mrs. Mills replied, no. I think 7:00 is a good time. <br />Council President Saponaro stated, I understand that. But I.am saying would you object if <br />Council wanted,to move it back to 8:00? <br />Mrs. Mills replied, it doesn't really matter, but 7:00 would be a good time. If we have to <br />accommodate Dr. Parker, I guess we will have to go back to 8:00. The other Councilmen took a <br />vote the other night and we all agreed on 7:00. Now we are going to unagree? <br />Council President Saponaro stated; that is why we are talking about it. <br />Mr. Marquardt stated, we did not vote. <br />Mrs. Mills asked, what did we do then? <br />Mr. Marquardt replied, we did not take a vote. <br />Mrs. Mills asked, did we not all agree? <br />Mr. Marquardt replied, no. <br />Council President Saponaro stated, if we look at the Minutes of the meeting that we had, I asked <br />if there were any objections to which Mr. Marquardt said he wants it to go back to 8:00 and the <br />remainder of Council, I asked individually and they all said they would like it at 7:00. So I may <br />not have said, do we have a vote? But as our Law Director said, it is the majority of Council that <br />makes the decision and at that moment, the majority of Council made that decision. That it has <br />to be a formal vote or formal resolution is not required per our Law Department though we can <br />put it in a resolution. So to say we did not vote or have a majority or speak as a body is <br />incorrect. We did not do a resolution. That's something we certainly can do. Mr. Schutt, what <br />is your opinion? <br />Mr. Schutt replied, I do agree with the fact that there could have been a litEle bit more time in <br />presenting it. However, it was also documented. I can go either way. 7:00 is a little bit more <br />convenient, but when I also first decided to run for Council, the meetings were at 8:00 and that is <br />what I was getting myself into so if it stays at 8:00, I am fine with that as well. I really can go <br />either way.
