A motion was made by Councilperson Skelton to approve the minutes as presente Secon y Counci person Westergren. Faris: Mr. Mayor, before the voting takes place, there is an error in the minutes. After the public hearing. Skelton: There is one small error on A3. The minutes state "Broadway", it should have been "Fairmont." At the bottom of the page. Faris: Yes, I noticed that, but that wasn't the one in my mind. On page A8, after the vote was taken on item 6, I left the room for a few moments and was not back in the room until item 8 had begun and was not present to vote on item 7 or enter into any discussion. I have no discussion here, but it does count me as voting for the motion, and I wasn't in the room. So I hereby move to amend these minutes by correcting the vote on item no. • Meza: Will you amend your motion to accept the minutes as corrected?
