President Wilshire
And we do have Alderman Lu with us.
Alderwoman Lu
Thank you Madam Chairman. My vote is no.

President Wilshire
So that motion fails. Could | get a motion on the Ordinance? Alderman Clemons.
Alderman Clemons
| am going to move to recommend indefinite postponement.
MOTION BY ALDERMAN CLEMONS FOR INDEFINITE POSTPONEMENT BY ROLL CALL
ON THE QUESTION
President Wilshire
Alderman Gathright?
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
Ok, what | was trying to get to and | think wasn’t getting accomplished was the fact that if we are going to
discuss it tonight, then will we be able to vote on this tonight, rather than push it to the Board of Aldermen
tomorrow because every last one of us are here tonight. As | remember the rules, if we do that tonight it
doesn’t have to go to tomorrow. And | don’t have a problem with the conversation, but | have a problem if
we are going to have a 2 hour conversation tonight and then go into it the next day with the same rhetoric,
that’s the essence of it.
President Wilshire
Attorney Clarke?
Alderman Harriott-Gathright
That was my question.
