Anyone else?
Alderman Caron
To you Madam Chair to Corporation Counsel. You said that this may not get done in time to be on the
November ballot. Would that mean we would have to have a special election or would this just die out in
December?
Steve Bolton, Corporation Counsel
It would be up to the Board.
Alderman Caron
Okay. All right. Thank you.

Alderwoman Lu
Thank you. | would just like a little clarification. It seemed to me that I'm not sure if | heard Corporation
Counsel's answer to the question do we have to take the vote tonight. It seemed that you went on to say yes
this could be a real time crunch if it’s not done tonight but we do have the option of voting in committee on the
necessity. Am! correct?
Steve Bolton, Corporation Counsel
You wouldn’t believe me no matter what | told you so I'll decline to answer.

Alderman Jette
Thank you Madam President. So! don’t want to do anything to derail this. | think Alderman Lopez's desire to
increase the number of people on the Board of Health it sounds like a great idea. He as liaison has seen them
in action and knows the problems and is trying to solve the problem. The problem | have is that | guess
because of the way the Statute is written, we are supposed to first determine that this is necessary.
Board of Aldermen 06-22-2021 Page 9
well how do | say this — after you determine it’s necessary, you have to schedule a public hearing that has to
be noticed in the newspaper. When you get word back from the three State officials, you will then have to
finalize the language taking into consideration what you hear in the public hearing, taking into consideration
what those three State officials had to say. If they say anything other than go ahead, you look okay.

President Wilshire
Alderman Lopezif | could. First off the Board of Health is appointed by me and approved by the Board not
appointed by the Mayor just for clarification.
Alderman Lopez
Okay | understand.
President Wilshire
The other thing, Attorney Bolton just advised me that your motion can’t have the word “if” in the first sentence.
You made a motion to determine if it's necessary. We need to strike the word “if”. Could you amend your
motion?
