In the spirit of attempting to minimize disenfranchisement of voting rights by any Councilor or constituency, I propose the following change of the second bullet under Section 4 (Process): - It currently reads, "An e-vote may only be cast by a member absent from the Council meeting." - I propose it be changed to read, "An e-vote may only be cast by a member absent from the Council meeting or one who needs time for further consultation or additional information."
