City Charter Amendment Revising Council Voting Procedures for Ordinances and Resolutions
What does this measure do?
The City Council would no longer need a roll call, where the clerk calls each member's name, to vote on city laws and resolutions. Each member must still vote yes or no, and each member's vote still goes in the public minutes; there is no cost.
Proposed by: Oviedo City Council (Ordinance 1769)
The city's elected council acted after its Charter Review Committee finished its work. A city charter is the city's rulebook. Florida law says city voters must approve any change to it.

A YES vote means
The council can vote on city laws and resolutions without calling the roll. Each member's vote is still recorded in the public minutes.
A NO vote means
The clerk must keep calling the roll of each member before votes on city laws and resolutions.
