    [00:00:49] The first item of business, or the only item of business we've got on the agenda, is the Alcoholic Beverage Special Event Permit Summer Concert Series. Ms. Manz? [00:01:00] Mr. Mayor, we are bringing this matter back before you so that we can have another opportunity to vote on this matter. [00:01:10] The staff is recommending that you consider this item. [00:01:18] Very good. [00:01:19] Did anybody want to say anything before we start the discussion on this? [00:01:31] Okay. [00:01:34] There's nobody in the audience, so I guess public comment is not appropriate. [00:01:39] So I'll bring it to Council. [00:01:42] Discussion? [00:01:45] Well, with the City Attorney not here, I wanted to ask him to explain this, but I will be recusing myself based on his recommendation after him speaking to the Ethics Commission. [00:02:01] Although there appears to be some gray areas within the issue, he did advise that I recuse myself and abstain from the vote, so I'd like that to go on record. [00:02:12] Very good. [00:02:16] Entertain a motion? [00:02:18] Move to approve. [00:02:21] Second. [00:02:22] We have a motion and a second. To the maker? [00:02:25] Nothing. [00:02:26] To the second? [00:02:28] No. [00:02:30] Councilman Davis? [00:02:32] Nothing. [00:02:34] I still think it's a bad idea, but we'll take it to there, and I presume you don't have any comments since you're recusing. [00:02:41] Correct. [00:02:42] Very good. [00:02:43] There's no further discussion. [00:02:44] All those in favor, please signify by saying aye. [00:02:47] Aye. [00:02:48] Aye. [00:02:49] Opposed? [00:02:50] Like sign? [00:02:51] Aye. [00:02:52] Aye. [00:02:54] Motion fails on a two-to-two sign with one abstention.
