From the transcript

Ironically, with this one, it actually came out the way I wanted it to come out. And the truth of the matter is, I think after your meeting, I probably could have had a pretty good track record of guessing how you'd have each voted. Which leads all the more to the reason why you shouldn't have done a poll. So in the discussion on August 13th, 2026, this topic was placed on the agenda and a survey was distributed by the clerks. The assembly reached consensus on the issues of quorum, whether exemptions allowable, remote circumstances, video requirements, notice deadlines, and executive session bans.
