City Clerk Stephanie Reinhardt asked each of the aldermen, Kelly Catarozoli in district one, Ed Ireland in district three, Jerry Stults in district five, and, Will Gregory in district seven, to read the words that would confer on each of them individually the rights and powers of a member of the common council. After each statement, there was a round of applause. Catarozoli was so filled with emotion that she tearfully went through the statement, having difficulty reading the words.
