The Plan Commission is not a deciding board. Their vote is a recommendation, albeit a strong one.
After the Plan Commission, in the case of a text amendment proposal, the next board to discuss the issue is the Planning and Development Board. If they should decide not to pass the proposal, the issue dies there. But generally that does not happen, and the Plan Development just pushes the issue further down the line to the Council, usually on the same night the issue is introduced. Generally the issue is decided on a subsequent council meeting, generally two weeks later, unless a special council meeting is called, as it happened in 1996. In 2019 matters take very little deliberation to be decided, so it's possible to have a decision in place within two weeks or less, from the time it is introduced at Council.

The Council
The council is made up of the mayor and nine alderpersons, each one representing an Evanston Ward. The quorum, the minimum of alderpersons that have to be present, is six. For an issue to be approved, when 6 or 7 alderpesons are present, 4 alderpeople have to agree. If there are more than 7 present, then 5 alderpersons constitute the majority. If the vote is split evenly then the Mayor contributes his vote.
