Summary

Trustees removed a contract item involving Victor Real Estate from the consent agenda for separate consideration and then adopted the consent agenda without that item; the motion passed with a recorded vote of 7-0 on the initial motion and later votes reflected consent approvals.

A board member asked to remove agenda item 0.4I — a contract referencing Victor Real Estate and Charles Sheinbaum — from the consent agenda for separate consideration. A motion to adopt the consent agenda without that item was made and seconded.

During the vote the chair announced, "Muy bien, la moción pasa 7 0," recording the trustees' decision to adopt the agenda with the item removed. The item was pulled for additional review; no substantive discussion of the contract occurred in open session at that time.

Why it matters: Pulling a contract from consent allows trustees additional time for review and possible public discussion before a vote. The board followed standard consent-agenda process and recorded the vote for the meeting minutes.

Next steps: The pulled contract will return to the board for separate consideration according to the board calendar and required disclosures, if any.
