Item 10 · hearing · Denied · 0:22:26
6-1 6 ayes, 1 nay, roll call at 2:51:06
Full pass only. The chair asked for 'a motion to vote to deny the appeal before us tonight' (2:50:33); motion 'to deny KZ2026-0004 [as heard] as presented to the board this evening' (2:50:55) by a speaker who is not named; 'Can I get a second?' (2:51:06), no second heard. Roll call by a reader who is not named from 'Acting Vice Chair Allen' (2:51:06): Allen 'Deny' (p 0.98), then, after a speaker asked whether that meant voting for the denial, 'So yes ... Oh yes' (2:51:06); DiAngelo 'Denied. Yes.' (2:51:28, p 0.95 and 0.92), then a speaker who is not named said 'The motion is to deny the appeal. So it's either yes or no' and 'So you're a yes', answered 'Yes' (p 0.57); Shedeed 'Yes' (2:51:50, p 0.70); Coviello 'Yes' (2:51:50, p 1.00); Burns 'Yes' (2:51:50, p 1.00); Patel 'I would say no' (2:51:59, 'no' p 0.97); Chair Coyle 'Yes' (2:51:59, p 1.00). Announced 'Motion carries six to one' (2:52:06), which agrees with the answers heard. Coviello was not called in the opening roll call or in the two earlier roll calls and no arrival was announced; whether Coviello heard the whole case is held for Adam (EDITORIAL.md §4, eligibility). Araujo and Czaplicki were not called. RESO Z2026-0004 on EnerGov (date of hearing April 9, 2026, memorialized June 4, 2026), vote table: 'VOTE ON MOTION TO DENY THE APPEAL PASSES ... VOTE 6-1', yes for Coyle, Allen, Shedeed, Burns, Coviello and DiAngelo, no for Patel; it does not list Araujo or Czaplicki, absent as heard. Its recital says the motion 'was seconded and then carried by a unanimous vote'. The resolution's recital says the motion 'carried by a unanimous vote'; its own vote table and the video give 6-1 with Commissioner Patel voting no. Commissioner Coviello is first heard at this roll call; recorded aye as heard. Published as heard on Adam Hanford's review of 2026-10-20.
