The Los Angeles City Council on Nov. 5 handled a large set of routine and consent agenda items with several votes and a small number of separate actions.
The clerk identified that items 2 through 15, 17 through 27, 31 and 32 were before the council for approval; the council opened and closed the roll and the clerk recorded the votes as part of the regular process. Later, after public comment, the council voted on items 33 through 36 and 38; the clerk tabulated those votes and announced 15 ayes. Several items were called out for separate votes: Councilmember Eunice Hernandez requested that items 28, 29, 30 and 37 be taken special and voted separately. The clerk reported the outcome for that grouped special vote as "2 ayes, 3 nos" as recorded in the meeting transcript.
The meeting included routine procedural actions: approval of meeting minutes, continuation of an item to Dec. 10, and administrative postings and referrals. The council also returned from closed session with no reportable action announced by the city attorney. Specific personnel votes, ordinance numbers, or exhaustive lists of each consent item’s subject matter were not read aloud in full during the portion of the meeting captured in the transcript; the clerk’s official minutes and the council file list provide item-level details and staff reports.
