'" ... approved. But as to whether anything was void because of the vote has not really been ruled. And it would be an extension of the Sunshine Law that I find very bizarre, frankly. But ifthere's any concern over the Commission, then just defer it till next month. We can get the new transmission from the Council and that would take care of it. But I just want the record to be clear that there was no ruling that any of these matters were void and there was no ruling that, or even an indication that there were Sunshine Law violations ~n all the matters that they voted on, other than the reorganization resolution. WOODWARD: Thank you. Mr. Gonzalez. GONZALEZ: Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Madam Director. I was going to just summarize. I think the concern here is there was a previous action, June 16th, there was a question on whether that action would be valid. After that action, the transmittal was sent to you folks to make a decision; and that's what's before you now. And the concern is just because it was redone yesterday they should be submitting a new transmittal to us to consider it, if you want to follow procedurally to the "T." So that's one route. So we would continue it until we receive the transmittal from their actions yesterday. The other one is to say, is to just take action today because any change or defect that may have existed on the 16th was addressed yesterday; and it doesn't make sense for them to have to send another transmittal because they already told us they already sent the transmittal. So that's basically it. You know what I'm saying? WOODWARD: Yes. GONZALEZ: So, you know, you can vote on it today if you want to, or you can follow the procedural, follow procedure and ask, and have them retransmit it for your decision-making at the next meeting. WOODWARD: All right. Let me just make a comment. My approach would be since this is basically not serious nuts and bolts, this is just housekeeping issues primarily, the worst thing that can happen is if we pass this today is that we see it again in a month or two. But I don't see any downside to go ahead and voting on this. And if it passes then we may not see it again. It may save us a little time in the future. LEITHEAD TODD: Mr. Chairman, and I was just going to say, and I think that we can take notice of the actions of the County Council yesterday in revoting and approving this exact same resolution that was in the public record. I think, you know, everyone seems to be aware that they voted on it. Staff has confirmed that they voted on it. And so just like Courts can take notice of what has occurred in judicial notice in other venues, I think the Commission can take notice of the actions of the County Council yesterday. And, therefore, any questions about whether this resolution has been approved by the correct County Council, I think have been taken care of by the vote yesterday. 4
