The Wellesley Select Board voted unanimously May 11 to approve a two-item consent agenda that included a right of first refusal on an affordable unit at 12 Hollis Street and the appointment of a subcommittee to interview candidates for the Town-Wide Capital Planning Committee.
Executive Director Meghan Jop told the Board the consent agenda contained “a right of first refusal for an affordable unit at 12 Hollis Street and the appointment of a subcommittee comprised of Mr. Ulfelder and Ms. Aufranc to interview candidates for the Town-Wide Capital Planning Committee.” The Board then moved and voted on the consent agenda.
Colette Aufranc moved to approve the consent agenda and Thomas Ulfelder seconded. The motion passed 5-0 with votes recorded as Aufranc — Aye; Freiman — Aye; Largess — Aye; Sullivan Woods — Aye; Ulfelder — Aye.

The Board did not discuss substantive changes to those documents during the open session recorded in the minutes.
