• Council Minutes of 9/19/2000 Call: Kasler, yes; Miller, yes; Limpert, yes; McKay, yes; Gareau, yes; Nashar, yes; ` O'Grady, no, with comment that he did not recall this legislation would be passed under suspension of the rule. His concern with the ordinance is that, if the legislature should choose to pass this ordinance, they are taking away the latitude of the trial judge. The trial judge would no longer have the ability to determine what minimum sentence perhaps was appropriate in what specific case. He would have liked to have had the assessment of a couple of trial judges first; therefore, his vote on suspension is no. President Saringer noted that the legislation was on the revised request for suspension. The motion passed with six affirmative votes and one negative vote.
