The council supported several education and budget-related priorities, including a request for special legislation to increase the local hotel excise tax. It also approved a joint strategic-planning request with the School Committee, amended to use an April 17 date and identify both bodies. The votes express the council’s support or authorize requests; the hotel tax increase and state-level measures are not established by these votes alone.
