In what turned out to be the shortest meeting ever, all five members of the Lafayette City Council responded to Matt Chaney's request for them to take the ubiquitous ice bucket challenge. "Thanks for stepping up," said Chaney, who has been very active in the community and living with ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, since 2001.
 Holding to protocol, mayor Don Tatzin called the meeting to order - with a motion to adopt the agenda, which was seconded and enthusiastically approved by all. The five-some, along with Chaney, then took their buckets (decorated with Love Lafayette bumper stickers) and doused themselves.
City clerk Joanne Robbins said they took the challenge seriously - she was in attendance to keep the checks they wrote to the ALS Association dry. The challenge continues, with the Lafayette City Council daring both Moraga and Orinda councils to also step up.
