These are meeting minutes, not a transcript of everything that was said.  The obligation is to record the time the meeting started and ended, the attendance, the topics discussed and decisions made by the committee.  

Also, every parliamentary authority that I'm aware of reserves a motion to reconsider to a person who voted on the prevailing side of the vote.  The ideas is that it is pointless to vote on an item again unless someone who was on the prevailing side of that vote indicated that they changed their mind.  How else could the results change? Since you voted in favor of "yes, with comments", a motion which lost, a motion to reconsider coming from you was out of order.
