Challenge vote defect before Samuell Boulevard office rezoning advances
Context: Item 18 vote sheet from February 5 states 'Housewright out of room, shown voting in favor' as part of the 14-0 result that forms the basis of the Council recommendation.
Recommended: The City Plan Commission's 14-0 recommendation includes Commissioner Housewright recorded as voting in favor while noted as out of the room — if this count is procedurally defective, the commission's unanimous recommendation loses its full legal weight. Place this objection on the record at the April 8 City Council hearing to preserve it as a challenge ground before the ordinance advances.
Request attendance log to verify Housewright's Samuell Boulevard vote
Context: The vote notes for Item 18 on February 5 explicitly state 'Housewright out of room, shown voting in favor' within the 14-0 carried result.
Recommended: Pull the February 5 City Plan Commission sign-in sheet and cross-reference it against the Item 18 vote tally — the official record shows Commissioner Housewright as 'out of room' yet counted in the 14-0 carry, which is the only commission action on this residential-to-office conversion before City Council acts April 8.
Lock in Council District 7 on Samuell Boulevard office rezoning
Context: The matter has appeared three times (January 15 continuance, February 5 City Plan Commission 14-0, March 25 Council deferral) and returns to City Council April 8, one day from now.
Recommended: City Council deferred this case on March 25 with no stated reason — contact the Council District 7 member's office today to confirm the April 8 hearing date is firm and identify what condition is holding the vote, because a second Council deferral leaves the Samuell Boulevard conversion without any resolution date after three hearings.
