B. For Your Information
1. Attached is the annual report for the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Management Facility for 2003.
2. Procedure for voting during Formal Meetings and straw polling during Work Sessions: Due to the Recorder’s new process of preparing minutes, and due to the several controversial items that the Council has considered lately, it would be helpful to ensure that each Council Members’ vote is recorded accurately and clearly on the audio recording of each meeting. In order to be sure that the record of votes and straw polls are accurate, Chairpersons will need to roll call the vote or straw poll on each item.
