Trainer demonstrates adding agenda items during meetings and archive edits
Summary
During the test session staff practiced adding an agenda item on the fly, recording a motion and later editing the archived agenda/minutes in Media Manager to renumber or combine notes.
Trainer demonstrated how clerks can add an item mid-meeting (subject to local charter rules), make it active, attach motion text, and run a vote. The trainer cautioned that some jurisdictions prohibit adding items on the floor and that archive edits (in Media Manager) can be used later to renumber or tidy minutes.
"If you add an item on the fly...you can time stamp it, you can take a vote on it...put a mover, mover, seconder," the trainer explained during a live demo. He then showed locating the meeting in the archive and making adjustments to item numbering and combining speaker notes into a single minutes entry.
The team practiced a mock add-on and agreed to check the county charter before routinely using on-the-fly additions in formal sessions.
