Summary

Faced with a narrow percentage gap, commissioners recessed so the county could "do the math," resumed and agreed to split the remaining difference, then moved to adjourn; both recess and adjourn motions passed by voice vote in the transcript.

With offers and counteroffers circulating, Committee member S2 moved for a recess so county staff could confirm calculations; S7 seconded the motion and the board recessed at voice vote. After briefly caucusing, the board reconvened and participants discussed splitting the remaining 1% difference (producing a compromise around 73.5/26.5). A subsequent motion to adjourn was moved (S7) and seconded (S9) and passed by voice vote.

The transcript records the motions and voice votes but does not show a formal roll-call tally for those motions nor a signed agreement implementing the negotiated split. The next procedural step implied by the discussion is staff production of updated, itemized project estimates and formal drafting of any intergovernmental agreement if parties decide to pursue an IGA.
