What does the source confirm?
Source ssp-cc-0706: Official South St. Paul City Council agenda and packet for July 6, 2026 (CivicClerk public portal, accessed 2026-07-07). Confirms that the listed items were scheduled for council consideration on July 6, 2026, and that the agenda numbers the lawful gambling ordinance second reading as Ordinance 1444. Source ssp-cc-0615: the June 15, 2026 minutes record the first reading of the lawful gambling ordinance, introduced without an ordinance number. Source ssp-cc-0518: the May 18, 2026 minutes record the council approving Ordinance 1444, updating zoning requirements in the R-2 single and two family district.

Primary source: South St. Paul City Council documents, May 18, 2026 (agenda, packet, minutes) - City of South St. Paul, CivicClerk. Minutes confirm Ordinance 1444, the Riverside Holdings site plan (5-1), and charter appointments (4-2); individual no votes are not named.

Supporting source: South St. Paul City Council documents, July 6, 2026 (agenda and packet) - City of South St. Paul, CivicClerk.

Context source: South St. Paul City Council documents, February 17, 2026 (agenda, packet, minutes) - City of South St. Paul, CivicClerk. Source for the February equal-treatment record; minutes confirm Resolutions 2026-029 and 2026-030 approved 6-0.
What does this source not prove?
Source limit: Agenda and packet only. The agenda confirms the items were scheduled, not that they were approved, adopted, awarded, or voted on. Official minutes were not yet posted as of the July 13, 2026 review, so no vote count and no individual member vote is claimed for any of these items. A second reading is a step toward adoption, not proof of adoption. Authorizing condemnation proceedings is a step in a legal process and does not by itself confirm that any property was taken. Two official documents use the number 1444 for different ordinances, and Meet Your Reps has not resolved which number is correct for the lawful gambling ordinance. Each item should be checked against the official minutes once posted.
