During the Aug. 5, 2026 remote session, the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority adopted Part B of the agenda, appointing presiding officers for three proceedings by consent.
The chair introduced Part B as a consent calendar item for appointment of presiding officers and a motion to adopt items 1–3 was moved and seconded. The clerk took roll and the chair announced that the panel had assigned presiding officers for items 1–3 and that those assignments were adopted. The transcript records the procedural steps but does not list the appointees’ names in the public portion of the record.
The action was taken on the consent calendar with no public discussion recorded. As with Part A, the motion and second are on the record but the transcript does not identify who made or seconded the motion. Roll-call responses recorded affirmative votes from Chair Tom Wheel, Vice Chairman David Arconti and Commissioners Jan Beecher, Holly Cheeseman and Everett Smith.
The meeting concluded after Part B business. The authority will reconvene on Aug. 12, 2026 at 9 a.m. via remote teleconference.
