Summary
The board approved the consent agenda on June 12, 2025, after Regents removed multiple items for separate consideration: Regent Barker asked to remove property‑facilities items on building‑raising and a tower project; items regarding the University of Iowa Hospital were also called out and removed.

The Iowa Board of Regents approved the consent agenda on June 12, 2025, after the board processed requests to remove specific items for separate consideration.
At the start of the consent item discussion, Regent Barker asked that items from the property and facilities committee concerning the raising of buildings and a tower project be removed from the consent agenda for separate votes. Regent Hensley moved to approve and receive the remaining items on the consent agenda, and Regent Jaden seconded. The roll call showed approval of the consent agenda with the specified items removed.
During the roll call, Regent Weiswick said she would abstain from the SUI Cambus maintenance facility expansion project while voting yes on the remaining consent items; that abstention was recorded in the meeting.
Later in the consent sequence, Regent Barker again called for items related to the University of Iowa Hospital to be removed from the consent agenda. The board then took a motion (moved by Regent Barker and seconded by Regent Hensley) to approve the remaining consent items after those IU Hospital items were removed. That motion carried on roll call: all regents present except Regent Barker voted yes; Barker recorded a No vote on that action.
What passed and how it was recorded - Action: Approval to receive/approve the consent agenda with property‑facilities and tower items removed. Motion moved by Regent Hensley; seconded by Regent Jaden; motion approved by roll call. - Noted abstention: Regent Weiswick abstained on the SUI Cambus maintenance facility expansion project but voted yes on the remaining consent items. - Action: Approval to receive/approve consent agenda after University of Iowa Hospital items were removed. Motion moved by Regent Barker; seconded by Regent Hensley; roll call passed with Regent Barker voting No and other voting regents voting Yes.
The board did not take final action on the removed items during the meeting; they remain separately noticed for consideration as required.
