At a glance: agenda approval and consent calendar pass at Kent council meeting
Summary
The Kent City Council approved the meeting agenda as published and passed the consent calendar (items a–h) by voice vote; both motions carried without recorded opposing votes.
During the July 15 Kent City Council meeting the council approved the meeting agenda and passed the consent calendar by voice vote.
At the start of the meeting a motion to approve the published agenda was made and seconded; the mayor called for the voice vote and pronounced the motion carried. Later in the meeting the council considered the consent calendar — items a through h — which had been vetted in committee and were presented as a single block. A motion and a second were recorded, and the mayor called the voice vote; the mayor announced "Motion carries / consent calendar passes." No individual roll-call tallies were provided in the public portion of the transcript.
The council did not identify individual movers or seconds by name on the record for these motions and no recorded 'no' or abstention votes were announced during the voice votes.
