Where the meeting record identified a mover or seconder, that name is recorded above. The meeting transcript did not consistently capture roll‑call tallies by individual board member for every motion; where a tally is not recorded above the item is described as "approved" in the public meeting. The district will post official minutes with full vote tallies and finalized contract details.
