Place 1

This is a record, not a scorecard

Votes are listed in the order they were taken. There is no score, no ranking, no percentage of agreement with anybody, and no chart. A commissioner who votes no on a contract is doing the job the seat is for.

How to read this

“Recused” and “abstained” are different acts. A recusal means the member had a conflict under Local Government Code § 171.004, filed an affidavit and left the room — it is compliance, not avoidance. An abstention means the member was in the room and chose not to vote.
