Summary

The board approved the consent agenda by voice vote; the president and a board member stepped out for a consent item allowing the Mendocino Film Festival to use Pallet Drive because of their affiliation with the festival.

Before the consent-vote, the president disclosed a conflict: she said she is on the board of the Film Festival and that Alex works for the Film Festival, so both would step out for the item allowing festival use of Pallet Drive. Jim ran the consent portion of the meeting while those members were absent and the consent agenda passed with no public objection.

The chair reiterated that the district follows recusal practice for overlapping affiliations and thanked the public for questions; no public members objected to the consent vote on record.
