Several public commentators referenced the memorandum of agreement and other agenda matters during public comment, and the DAA president thanked the board in public comment prior to the roll call approval of the negotiations items. The transcript does not include full motion text or explicit mover/second names for every item; where the record omitted explicit motion wording, this summary lists the agenda block language and the documented roll-call outcomes.
