Notes on counts and tallies: Where the transcript recorded only "All in favor? Aye" or "Motion carried," the minutes reflect the outcome but do not provide a roll-call tally of yes/no votes. Named movers and seconders are included where the transcript identified them; if not recorded, the meeting minutes used generic "moved"/"seconded" language.

What this means: The board approved a mix of operational payments and administrative policy clarifications, and directed staff on enforcement actions for nuisance properties. Several items (notably the airport fuel procurement) will return to the board for detailed evaluation after staff review.
