Relevant excerpt / notes
Council awarded Taylor Engineering $1,381,777. Mayor Douglas Nicholls declared a conflict because his firm was involved in the contract, left the dais and abstained; the motion passed 6-0-1. This does not establish that his firm supplied the utility-location data or caused the plan mismatch.
