On question, Councilman Henderson questioned the word "fill" being used in title of Resolution #5138 adopted September 12, authorizing City Clerk to call for bids re Belmont Slough, as she stated word was not used in resolution presented and adopted by Council, but had stated "related construction" only. City Manager explained the action taken and affirmed fact resolution as it appears in the Minutes was read and action taken on that basis. City Aftorney advised that due to fact that engineering consultants, DMJM, had presented bid specifications in two separate documents, of which fact he was not aware until after resolutions had gone out to Council for review, he had revised the authori- zing resolution to cover the situation, and it was the revised resolution which had been read by the Clerk. Councilman Henderson questioned whether this would be considered a legal and binding decision when she was unaware of facts. City Attorney advised resolution was changed before Council action, title was read including the word "fill" and resolution contained facts covering same. Councilman Keckley asked if Councilman Henderson would have changed her vote on this matter if resolution she had received had been the one adopted, with word "fill" included. Councilman Henderson replied she would have only asked more questions. Motion to approve Minutes, as mailed, carried.
