From the transcript
Um, being there was some discussion on this resolution, I guess I was surprised that there was a presentation from that because in the minutes you might note that under the manager's report, I did— I was there and addressed the matter and said that it would be brought back to the, the board for inclusion of the discussion and a determination at their meeting. And so that meeting is actually here next Tuesday. And so I did take that from the council, and so, you know, it's something that, you know, is on the draft agenda at this time. I also, I guess, feel that motions, resolutions, ordinances, they all, you know, carry a similar amount of weight, although only under an ordinance can, you know, does it become law.
