What changed between versions

Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits
MINOR
The document was converted from a draft bill with council member signatures to an enrolled, official version. The primary change is the removal of the signature page and the addition of official enrollment metadata, including the bill number (26-171) and the specific date of enrollment (June 9, 2026). The substantive text of the resolution, which recognizes LGBTQIA+ communities and commemorates Capital Pride 2026, remains unchanged.
TECHNICAL

Removed the page containing signatures from the council members, which is standard procedure when a bill is officially enrolled.

Added the official bill number (26-171) and the enrollment date (June 9, 2026) to formally designate the document as the final, enacted version.

Reorganized the document layout to place the title and bill number at the top, consistent with official enrolled formats, while preserving the original text content.
