More than three hours into a Glendale Design Review Board meeting, Commissioner Francesca Smith raised a wineglass containing a small amount of pinkish liquid.
She smiled as she appeared to toast her colleagues after seconding a motion to adjourn the meeting, held virtually because of the COVID-19 pandemic, about 8:30 p.m.
Smith has not said whether there was wine in the glass. Sipping from it toward the end of the meeting did not affect her judgment, she said.
