Councilmember Knox White stated that his understanding of the matter is to ratify that the appropriate people have signed off on the bills; the matter is not a place for Council to question each listed charge; if Councilmembers have questions about charges, the questions can be asked outside of the meeting; discussing the matter is off-topic and violates noticing requirements. Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft outlined the memorandum included in the bills from the Finance Director. Vice Mayor Vella stated Council has conflated different items; expressed concern over noticing requirements. Regular Meeting Alameda City Council September 7, 2021 3 | CityCouncil/2021-09-07.pdf |
