For several roll‑call votes the meeting transcript recorded each responding member as “yes” (the transcript captured the roll‑call confirmations). Where individual member names were recorded in the transcript as part of the roll call, the board recorded the votes in the public minutes; the board clerk will publish the official roll‑call list in the signed minutes.
Follow‑up: Staff will complete conditional contract checks (references/insurance) for the transfer‑station contractor award, finalize personnel policy text with counsel for the sick bank, and file the signed motions/minutes in the official records.
