Watch the video

Built from the HTML text of the City's agenda item page (only the agenda header was read) and from YouTube auto-generated captions of the video. No agenda PDF and no minutes were read: the minutes are posted, but their draft or final status is not shown. Votes are as spoken in the captions and are unconfirmed against the minutes; names and figures in captions may be misheard.

• Supplemental Appropriation 3 (Ord. 6747, $1,280,319) approved (FY2027 Budget and Supplemental Appropriations).
• FY2027 budget ordinance, continued from the August 26 special meeting: Biberdorf moved to restore $100,000 cut from the mayor's budget. Details and the outcome were not fully read and are uncertain (FY2027 Budget and Supplemental Appropriations).
• Ord. 6726, reasonable accommodation procedure (Title 17), second reading: an amendment adding a neighbor-notification, conditional-use-style process failed on a roll call (yes: Maher, Strommen; the rest no). The main motion then passed with two nays (Maher, Strommen); Tamang abstained (Reasonable Accommodation Procedure Ordinance).
• Several planning items approved with stipulations (Rezoning and Subdivision Cases Fall 2026).
• Votes are as spoken in YouTube auto-generated captions and are unconfirmed against the minutes.
