Notes and process clarifications: Many of the items above were part of consent agendas, which the board adopted by single motions unless removed for separate discussion. The construction testing allowance and the GMP amendment were debated and are reported in detail in the construction article. The tax valuation complaint was approved with one abstention (Mister Gomez). Where a mover or seconder was not recorded in the transcript the board relied on normal parliamentary process and roll call votes.
