Alderman Comeau
That would be correct Madam President. That would be correct. | did think it would die in committee and | wanted to get
the full Board to discuss it. | didn't realize till today that that's how a denial happened. So I'm learning every day but I'm
glad it's here to be discussed either way. So | get.
Alderman Sullivan
Thank you, Madam President. That's what | was going to ask you what we were voting on.
President Wilshire
That's what we're voting on for final passage. So if you want the Chair of a committee to be able to Zoom in and Chair the
committee, you'll vote yes. If you don't think they should, you'll vote no. Okay. Done with discussion on this? Would the
Clerk call the roll?
Alderman O’Brien
Question. Did you have that backwards?
President Wilshire
No. If you're in favor of them chairing a committee from home, you'll vote yes. If you're not in favor of that, you'll vote no.
Alderman O’Brien
Thank you, Madam President.
President Wilshire
You're welcome. Madam Clerk?
