The council adopted the consent agenda by motion, approving routine items and several appropriations.
The clerk described the consent agenda as comprising noncontroversial matters and listed items that included grants to support services for homeless persons and families, funding for a junior commonwealth's attorney program, early cancer detection testing for fire division members, and acceptance and appropriation of $1,400,000 on a reimbursement basis from the City of Newport News Department of Water Works for construction costs related to the Queensway Streetscape project.
