Councilor Ortiz said she was glad to see staff continuing to improve City services. Councilor Kelly conveyed his appreciation for staff's response to his question, similar to Councilor Poling's question. He recalled that paper checks were facsimile signed by the City Manager and Mayor. He asked if the signatories were being changed to the City Manager only. City Manager Taylor responded that it would still require the signatures of the City Manager and the Finance Officer. Mr. Klein stated that the code originally dictated that checks should be signed by the Mayor or City Manager and the Finance Officer. He surmised this code provision dated back in history to an earlier form of City government. Mayor Piercy determined there were no objections to taking action at the present meeting. Councilor Poling, seconded by Councilor Solomon, moved that the City Council adopt Council Bill 4889, an ordinance concerning City expenditures. Roll call vote; the motion passed unanimously, 6:0. 5.
