Commissioners noted that listing each item individually is deliberate to maintain transparency rather than using a consent agenda. After completing business, the board voted to adjourn into executive session under RC 121.22(G)(8) to discuss the possible investment or expenditure of public funds related to an economic development project; a workshop was planned to follow executive session.
All formal votes recorded in the meeting were roll calls and recorded as affirmative by the three commissioners present.
