 ROLL CALL

 Mayor Irvin called the Special City Council meeting to order at 5:51 p.m., after
 the regularly-scheduled Committee of the Whole Meeting, and the roll was
 called.

 Mayor Irvin found that an in-person meeting of the Council was neither
 practical nor prudent and that it was not feasible for members of the public to
 attend this meeting in person at City Hall. The meeting was conducted by
 Internet teleconference without the physical presence of a quorum. The City
 Clerk was present at City Hall, the regular meeting location.
 Present: 13 - Alderman Emmanuel Llamas, Alderwoman Juany Garza, Alderman Ted
 Mesiacos, Alderman Bill Donnell, Alderman Carl Franco, Alderman Mike
 Saville, Alderwoman Scheketa Hart-Burns, Alderwoman Patty Smith,
 Alderman Edward Bugg, Alderwoman Shweta Baid, Alderman-At-Large
