Mount Pleasant village board approves consent agenda; Trustee Washburn to recuse from item 6

Mount Pleasant Village Board approved its consent agenda at a meeting called to order at 6 p.m. on Feb. 10, 2025, after a roll call that showed Trustees Anastasio, Doxie, Ventrini, Washburn and De Groot present and Trustees Caris and Bacha excused.

The consent agenda, which bundles routine administrative items for a single vote, passed after a motion and second. The clerk reported no members of the public had signed up to speak during the public comment period. During the roll-call discussion the board noted that Trustee Washburn would recuse from consideration of agenda item 6; Washburn confirmed the recusal by saying, “That’s correct.”

Following the motion on the consent agenda, the board chair called for voices in favor; the clerk recorded the ayes and the chair declared the consent agenda approved. The meeting proceeded without further public comment and concluded after a motion to adjourn that was seconded and approved.

The meeting record as provided does not include a line-by-line vote tally for the consent agenda or an indication whether the recusal applied to the entire consent package or only the single item referenced. The clerk’s note that no members of the public had signed up for public comment and the board’s roll-call attendance are the substantive actions recorded in the transcript.
