Councillor Waseem Zaffar, who has since passed away, declared an interest as a campaigner against the match at the first SAG meeting.
“However, while his contributions to the SAG mostly related to safety, he nonetheless relayed the view of his community ‘that this game should not go ahead,'” the report said.
The council has commissioned an independent review of its SAG processes.
The Liberal Democrat group said Hussain reiterated on Monday her main concern “was always the safety of the community and the fans of both teams”.
“As a member of the Villa Park Safety Advisory Group… she attended the meeting to represent the local community to the best of her ability, and supported the decision it made based on the assessment provided by West Midlands Police.”
Council leader John Cotton said police evidence was the key driver of the SAG’s decision, “but there are also clear actions for the council, which we will undertake”.
The force stated it was “fully committed” to learning from the events surrounding the ban and was seeking to restore the public’s trust and confidence in the force.
