IMILTON I Ifoteflawed, according to the rules By RICHARD VIVIAN The Champion Last month's council confusion over the smoking *bylaw should neyer have happened in the first place, state regulatory miles. Folowing a Town staff review of the controversial 5-4 vote against reconsider- ing the smoking bylaw, it's been deter- mined the vote was flawed on several lev- els. Under the miles of order, a motion to reconsider the smoking bylaw - made by Councilor Rick Day- was out of order and shouldn't have inspired a council debate and vote. "This reconsideration motion was brought up and procedurally, that shouldn't have been allowed," said Town Clerk Troy McHarg, who joined the Town's staff days after the vote in question. As someone who voted in faveur of the current byIaws. Mr. Day would've had the ahility Io move reconsideration, but oniy during the April 22 meeting as which the hY1va wsas originalv appros'ed. Hoss eser. the mon ito reconsider ssas allossed and another procedural error torced the issue te mos e torssard to Nionday's couincil meeting' lmmediately tollossing the October 28 decision. Councillor Barry Lee requested a recorded vote be taken. That request should've been granted and a challenge of the chair by Councillor John Challinor against the recorded vote should've been dismissed, under provincial legisiation. "This (no recorded vote) is called an on- going breach of precedural ruies. Just because he (Mr. Lee) waan't given the opportunity before (for the recorded vote), doesn't mean that he deesn't stili have the night te get it," explalned Mr. McHarg. "That toek precedence over aI else." Mr. Challinor's October challenge was successful after no members of council steed in favour of the mayer's cal for the recorded vote. It was that recorded vote that took place Monday, when council attempted te right the procedural wrongs. The reconsidera- tien died 6-5. *Man struck by vehicle A 20-year-old Toronto man is listed in stable condition after being hit by a car while crossing Regional Road 25 north of l-wy. 401 Tuesday.
