What the city decided, who voted which way, and the document that proves it. No opinions live on this page; that's what issues are for.

Coverage note: extraction is ongoing, not yet every vote in every meeting back to the archive's start. Completeness is the goal, not yet the state. The years below show exactly what's covered so far; a year with no page has nothing extracted yet.

Which bodies: City Council, the Planning Commission, and the Historic Landmarks Commission sitting as full commissions. Not included: the HLC's two-member consent sessions, which review individual private properties; the block vote by which the full commission ratifies them is recorded here. The Architectural Board of Review and the Staff Hearing Officer are not covered; the Staff Hearing Officer is a single city official whose determinations are not votes.
