The mayor is marked “Chair, no vote” at regular council unless a tie requires a deciding vote. Committee votes are treated differently because the mayor votes as a committee member. A named line appears only when the official minutes identify individual positions.

Current coverage is an expanded written-record audit of divided decisions, not a claim that every vote was divided. Named splits link to the minutes that identify each position. Open the June 23, 2026 motion registry ↗
