Several other items were continued for additional consideration (garden admission/lease items 7 & 8) or advanced with amendments (Muni bond items 9 & 10). A number of votes were recorded on the record; for items where a committee member was absent the clerk noted absences as part of the roll call.

Each item will appear on the February or subsequent Board agendas as noted by the clerk; full Board action is required to finalize appropriations, bond placements, or property acquisitions.
