Adjourn
Motion by Councilor Dumais, seconded by the Chair to adopt the following: ORDERED There being no further business, the regular meeting of the City Council is herewith adjourned at 8:47 PM; adopted.
The minutes record the result only (“adopted.”), with no count or names, so MassVoter shows the result only and does not show how each councilor voted.

From the Marlborough City Council’s official minutes, posted by the City Clerk in the city’s Agenda Center (City Council). We check every vote against the councilors present and quote the exact wording. MassVoter never grades or scores officials. Councilor photos: Marlborough Patch candidate profiles (photos courtesy of the candidates; cropped by MassVoter). Trey Fuccillo: The Berkeley Beacon (Ashlyn Wang). The city website has no councilor photos. Heather Gould and former councilors show initials.
