And that motion carries. So our next motion was made by Alderman Dowd. If anyone wants him to read all
those again that’s find but if not, anyone? Would the Clerk please call the roll?

MOTION CARRIED
President Wilshire
OK did we have a third amendment? Alderman Jette?
Alderman Jette
Yes | now move to adopt the language that was enunciated by Attorney Bolton.
MOTION BY ALDERMAN JETTE TO AMEND BY ADDING ATTORNEY BOLTON’S LANGUAGE THAT
THE MAYOR SHALL HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO ADOPT RULES REGARDING MASK WEARING IN CITY
HALL AND / OR CITY BUILDINGS (EXCEPTION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS) BY ROLL CALL
ON THE QUESTION
President Wilshire
So that motion would give the Mayor the authority to make rules for Government Buildings. Discussion on that
motion? Alderman Tencza?
Alderman Tencza
Thank you Madam President. Just for clarification, | am wondering if Alderman Jette would amend it so that it is
non-educational government buildings so that there’s no confusion, even though it is spelled out in the
ordinance that the Board of Education is going to make the decision for the schools.
Alderman Jette
Madam President?
President Wilshire
Alderman Jette.
Alderman Jette
Yes if the intention is to exclude the schools, | agree. We don’t have authority over the school buildings | don’t
think. That’s within the purview of the Board of Education. So yes, this would only apply to non-school,
buildings that are not governed by the Board of Education.
