If Councilmembers Juker and Rossbach will inform me of what their votes were, I will add that information to the minutes and distribute a new page before the January 11 meeting. Also, the other corrections discussed at the December 28 meeting have been made on the attached copy. If I missed hearing any corrections, please let me know. I have also corrected the December 10 Budget Hearing minutes and a new copy i s being provided for your records. Thank you. 19 12-14-92 cc: City Manager 20 12-14-92
