UNFINISHED BUSINESS — RESOLUTIONS
MOTION BY ALDERMAN CLEMONS TO RECONSIDER R-18-102 AMENDED BY ROLL CALL
ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Jette
Point of order. Could you explain to us what this process, | think | understand it but | just want to make
sure that by moving to reconsider what we are doing is we are dealing with the Mayor’s Veto and if we vote
to reconsider then that would, if that does not pass, then the Mayor’s Veto is sustained. If it does pass,
then we vote again on whether or not to sustain the Mayor’s Veto. Am | correct on that?
President Wilshire
Yes.
Alderman Jette
So again looking for your guidance, is this the time that we discuss whether or not we agree with the Mayor
or not?
President Wilshire
No not until the motion passes to reconsider, because it is not on the table.
Alderman Clemons
Yeah just to make it little bit more clear, the motion to reconsider for all intents and purposes put the
Resolution back on the table and then at that point | intend to make a motion to override the Veto. And |
would think that at that point we would discuss the merits.
Alderman Jette
| see Attorney Bolton shaking his head, could we ask him why he’s shaking his head?
