Votes at a glance: Board approves consent agenda, creates housing ad hoc, delegates animal-services donation authority, introduces fireworks ordinance
Summary
On May 20 the board approved the consent calendar (items 6–35) with one supervisor recusing on three items, created a housing ad hoc, authorized the animal-services donations and governance study outreach, and introduced fireworks ordinance changes for a June 3 adoption vote.
Key formal actions taken by the Yolo County Board of Supervisors on May 20:
- Consent agenda (items 6–35): Approved by voice vote. Supervisor Oscar Barajas announced recusal from items 9, 19 and 33 because of a potential conflict; those abstentions were recorded. The consent calendar included the county audit (item 19) and the MissionSquare contract extension (item 20).
- Animal Services (item 38): Board delegated authority to the director of Animal Services to accept restricted and unrestricted donations and directed the county administrative office to begin partner outreach to evaluate alternative governance models for Animal Services (moved by Supervisor Villegas; seconded by Supervisor Frerichs; approved by voice vote).
- Housing ad hoc (item 39): Board created an ad hoc subcommittee to focus on housing for special-needs and farmworker populations and appointed Supervisors Oscar Barajas and Don Frerichs to the panel (moved by Supervisor Barajas; seconded by Supervisor Frerichs; approved by voice vote).
- Fireworks ordinance (item 40): The board introduced by title proposed amendments to Yolo County Code Title 4, Chapter 2 related to fireworks, waived first reading and continued the matter for second reading and adoption on June 3, 2025 (moved by Supervisor Allen; seconded by Supervisor Frerichs; approved by voice vote).
Votes recorded were taken by voice; where recusals were declared those were noted by the clerk. No roll-call tallies were provided in the transcript.
