An unidentified presiding speaker announced the meeting was out of executive session and the group then moved, seconded and voted on a motion, the transcript shows. Mister Merrill and Mister Benton were recorded as voting "aye."
The meeting then recessed until 1:30 p.m. for a viewing on another ditch petition, the presiding speaker said.
The transcript contains no text of the motion debated or of any opposing votes. The only recorded spoken votes in the excerpt were "Mister Merrill. Aye" and "Mister Benton. Aye." The recording also includes the phrase "2 5 Dash627" immediately before the roll call, which appears in the meeting record but is not identified further in the transcript.
Remarks in the excerpt occurred directly after the body exited an executive session; no public comment or substantive discussion about the ditch petition appears in the provided transcript excerpt. The recess was described as a viewing related to another ditch petition; no additional details about the petition, location, or next procedural steps were given in the excerpt.
