Alderman Tencza
Oh okay. I’m sorry.
President Wilshire
That’s okay.
Alderman Tencza
But! think given the considerations of the Board of Public Health that | think it’s an easy decision to say this is
necessary and we should move forward with this tonight and let it go through the process from here.
President Wilshire
Anyone else? Alderwoman Lu.
Alderwoman Lu
| just want to explain that a big reason why | am moving to send it to committee first is that | wanted to
establish that thatis an option. Itwas my understanding it’s an option. | believe that Corporation Counsel has
told us it’s actually an option and after the last reading to change the Charter, | felt that it — well now can tell
that most people or many people in here were not aware that it was an option. | wanted that to be more clear.
The reason | say that - Madam Chairman I'm sorry if ’m making you roll your eyes — but the reason I’m saying
that is | had conversations with people. Corporation Counsel is very angry with me because | expressed that |
tried to get to the bottom of it at the meeting that night.
Steve Bolton, Corporation Counsel
You don’t know why I'm angry with you apparently.
Alderwoman Lu
Excuse me. fm speaking.
Steve Bolton, Corporation Counsel
Yeah and nowl'm speaking...
Alderwoman Lu
No.
Steve Bolton, Corporation Counsel
and you're misrepresenting me and I’m interrupting you so that you don’t continue to misrepresent me.
Alderwoman Lu
Who’s running this meeting? lmesorry. I’m all set.
President Wilshire
