To send a Communication to all City Department inquiring if the above-referenced property is needed for municipal purposed or to offer any other pertinent information relative to the property.

The minutes list each councilor’s vote, but the list does not match the 7–0 count, so individual votes are not shown. We will ask the City Clerk to confirm.

Read it in the official minutes, page 1 (PDF)

From the official minutes kept by the New Bedford City Clerk (agendas and minutes). The minutes are text documents; we read every action, check every roll-call count against the councilors named, and quote the exact wording. Most items pass by voice vote, and the minutes record only the result for those; how each councilor voted is shown only for roll calls. MassVoter never grades officials; votes and attendance are shown exactly as the minutes record them. Councilor photos: cropped from the City of New Bedford's official 2026 City Council photo (newbedford-ma.gov). The 2024–2025 group photo, and the photos of Maria E. Giesta and Linda M. Morad cropped from it: City of New Bedford, provided by the City Clerk.
