Pull airport parking rate ordinance and tie-vote procedure
Applies if: You advise the airport, a parking operator, or a party affected by Section 9-35 rates
Why now: File 26-1340 passed first reading 6-2 on 2026-09-01 but failed 4-4 with Mayor Guajardo abstaining on 2026-09-08, and the supplied record states no next procedural step.
What to do: Obtain the ordinance text and the council rules on tie votes and abstentions to determine whether a failed second reading can be reconsidered or must be re-filed. This decides whether the long-term parking rate change can return quickly or must restart.
Act before: After the next material record update
Ask why airport long-term parking rate vote flipped
Why now: The ordinance passed first reading 6-2 on 2026-09-01 (Vaughn and Hernandez against), then failed 4-4 with one abstention on 2026-09-08, with Paxson and Cantu newly voting against and Mayor Guajardo abstaining.
What to do: Ask council members why the airport long-term parking rate ordinance went from passing to failing in one week, and what changed. Without answers, the public will not know whether the rate change is dead or will return in revised form.
Act before: After the next material record update
