Jody Maggard, finance officer, presented construction-related items and invoices for payment, including work by Codell Construction and the Clott, Feltner and Samakar architectural firm, which the minutes list among construction project business the board considered. The minutes do not record debate or dissent on the measures; each recorded motion passed unanimously.
