Santa Clara County supervisors unanimously adopt commendations and proclamations
Summary
The Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to adopt a set of commendations and proclamations (Item 7), with presentation of some citations deferred because recipients were unavailable.
The Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted Item 7, a set of commendations and proclamations, during the board meeting following closed session.
Vice President Sylvia Arenas moved to approve Item 7 and asked that Item 7(b), a commendation for the Consulate General of Mexico, be adopted but presented later because the consul was unavailable. A second was given; the board then conducted a roll call and recorded five affirmative votes. The roll call recorded Supervisor Abe Koga as “aye,” a second supervisor listed as “Jung” as “yes,” Supervisor Ellenberg as “yes,” Vice President Sylvia Arenas as “yes,” and President Lee as “aye.” The motion carried 5–0.
The board clarified that several commendations would be adopted today but presented at later ceremonies where honorees or their representatives could attend. No amendments or conditions to the adopted commendations were recorded in the public transcript.
