Also of note

In a referendum, voters were asked whether the city should continue to use automated license plate reader cameras.

City Council called for the referendum in August, according to previous reporting by Community Impact. Originally, election results were to be non-binding, but council later voted to make the results binding, meaning the city will take down the cameras if voters cast ballots in favor of removing them. 

Looking ahead

Community Impact will update this article as more election day vote totals are released. All results are unofficial until canvassed.
