In answer to Mr. O'Grady's question as to the need for immediate passage, Mr. Bohhnann said that, since the job was under construction, it would be helpful to pass it as expeditiously as possible. Mrs. Saringer changed her vote to `fro" since the result had not been announced. A lengthy discussion ensued on two points: 1. Whether a Council Member could change a vote; 2.
