Cochise County Jail District board approves consent agenda items without discussion

The Cochise County Jail District Board of Directors approved its consent agenda — items 1 and 2 — without discussion during a brief meeting on May 6, 2025, at 10 a.m. in the Board of Supervisors hearing room, 1415 Melody Lane, Building G, Bisbee.

The action came at the start of the joint meeting of the Cochise County Board of Supervisors and the Jail District board. The chair noted the meeting was convened pursuant to Arizona law and that the public could attend in person or remotely via Microsoft Teams or by phone. No members of the public spoke during the meeting.

At roll call, Supervisor Crosby (District 1) and Supervisor Gomez (District 2) were present; Supervisor Antinori (District 3) was absent. The chair asked for a motion to accept the consent agenda. A board member moved to “accept consent, agenda items 1 and 2,” another board member seconded, and the chair called for the question, saying, “All in favor, say ‘aye.’” Two affirmations of “Aye” were recorded and the chair said the motion passes. The meeting then adjourned and the regular Board of Supervisors meeting proceeded.

The transcript does not specify the substantive contents of consent agenda items 1 and 2, nor does it identify by name who moved or seconded the motion. The meeting notice referenced Arizona Revised Statutes governing public meetings; the transcript cites ARS 38-431.02(H) as the basis for public access to the meeting.
