What this means
Two proposals to change how Denver plans and amends its budget were moved to a later date, so no changes will take effect now. The committee also approved several mayoral appointments to advisory bodies and a city contract to track employee Affordable Care Act reporting, which affects city personnel reporting and compliance. An executive session was held; details of that session are not included in these minutes.
