Summary

The North Smithfield School Committee approved the consent agenda with item 5 held for separate consideration; the member associated with item 5 recused and the item was approved with that recusal.

The committee considered the consent agenda and asked if any items should be pulled for discussion. One member requested item 5 be held. The chair then called for a motion to approve the consent agenda excluding item 5; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

When item 5 was taken up separately, the member connected to that item stated, “I just need to recuse myself from the vote.” The committee then moved, seconded and approved item 5 with that member recused. The transcript records vocal agreement (“Aye”) but does not list roll-call vote totals beyond attendees confirmed earlier in the meeting.
