Fulton County commissioners adopt consent agenda 5-0; second regular agenda introduced
Summary
At its Jan. 22 meeting the Fulton County Board of Commissioners adopted the consent agenda by a 5-0 vote and then moved to consider a second regular meeting agenda; the transcript does not record the outcome of the second-item vote.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners adopted the meeting’s consent agenda by a 5-0 vote at its Jan. 22 regular meeting, the clerk recorded.
Commissioner Bridget Thorne moved to adopt the consent agenda; Commissioner Dana Barrett seconded the motion. The clerk announced, “The motion passes 5 yeas, 0 nays.”
The consent agenda packages routine items for a single vote and, according to the clerk’s opening remarks, any item could be pulled for separate consideration and placed on the next regular-meeting agenda. The clerk confirmed there were no items pulled for separate consideration before the vote.
The board’s roll call showed Chairman Rob Pitts and Commissioners Bridget Thorne, Bob Ellis (vice chairman), Dana Barrett, Mo Ivy, Marvin Arrington Jr. and Khadija Abdul Rahman present at the start of the meeting. The session opened with a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance.
After the consent vote the clerk introduced the "second regular meeting agenda" for adoption (agenda code cited in the transcript as 2500066). The provided transcript segment did not include a recorded motion or vote on that second agenda item.
The clerk also noted a contact for accommodations and for obtaining a written transcript: “For a written transcript of this meeting or if you need reasonable accommodations, including this communication in an alternative format due to disability, please contact the clerk to the commission’s office at (404) 612-8232.”
The meeting continued beyond the provided transcript excerpts.
