Summary

  • Proposed extending the February 12 meeting past 10 p.m. to finish hearing registered speakers on the Olympic Village School text amendment (Item 3), then referring all follow-up questions, debate, and the final decision to February 26, 2026 at 3 p.m.
  • Brought forward because the speakers list was very large (estimated 25–35 in chambers plus additional callers online) and it was not feasible to hear everyone and hold a proper debate before midnight.
  • No substantive arguments against the procedural motion; council agreed it was fairer to speakers to let everyone be heard rather than cut off the list.
  • Carried unanimously by councillors present.
