Avon Town Council approves consent agenda, including Avon Marketplace bond release
Summary
At its March 27 meeting, the Avon Town Council approved a consent agenda that included the check register, March 13 minutes, acknowledgment of RDC and RDA annual reports and the Avon Marketplace bond release; a council member raised a vendor-payment concern before the vote.
The Avon Town Council approved its consent agenda on March 27, accepting the March 13 minutes, the March 27 check register and acknowledging the Redevelopment Commission (RDC) and Redevelopment Authority (RDA) annual reports and the Avon Marketplace bond release.
A council member raised a concern during the consent-agenda discussion about a vendor payment and a possible delinquency; the council proceeded to vote after that comment. A motion to approve the consent agenda was made and seconded, and the council adopted it by roll-call vote.
The motion as recorded on the meeting transcript read in part: “Make a motion that we approve the consent agenda including the check register for March 27, … the March 13 work session memoranda, the approval of the March 13 minutes and then the acknowledgement of the RDC annual reports, the RDA annual reports and the Avon marketplace bond release as presented.” The transcript does not identify the motion maker or seconder by name.
The council conducted a roll-call vote following the motion. The transcript indicates the motion carried; an explicit, unambiguous numeric tally for each member is not fully legible in the record provided. The consent agenda items approved by the council were: the March 27 check register (check register reference in the transcript is partially transcribed and not fully specified), approval of March 13 minutes, acknowledgment of RDC and RDA annual reports, and the Avon Marketplace bond release.
The council opened two public-comment periods during the meeting; no members of the public came forward at either session, and the meeting moved on to liaison reports and the legal-counsel report.
