Notes on vote counts: The transcript records roll-call “aye” responses for each motion and records one explicit “Abstain” on the appeal authorization. The meeting record in the board packet should be consulted for formal tallies and absences; the transcript captures voice/roll-call affirmations but does not read complete numeric tallies for every motion into the record.
