Team, |

Votes by email must be after the meeting. How else can council members |
| 29 |
voting by email take into account any discussion on the topic that |
| 30 |
happened at the meeting? |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Anything that allows flexibility is a good thing as long as |
| 33 |
transparency is maintained, so vote emails need to be posted with the |
| 34 |
records of council meetings. |
