Supervisor proposes eliminating Wayne County consent agenda; county attorney to research steps
Summary
Supervisor Mike Kolczynski urged the committee to remove the county's consent-agenda pass-through step and allow resolutions vetted by standing committees to proceed directly to the full Board; County Attorney Erin Hammond said she will research the procedural requirements and what would be necessary to implement the change.
Supervisor Mike Kolczynski raised a procedural concern about Wayne County’s pass-through resolution process and proposed eliminating the current consent agenda so that resolutions approved by standing committees would go directly to the full Board without an additional committee vote.
Kolczynski argued that standing committees should be trusted to thoroughly review matters within their jurisdiction and that the extra pass-through step is redundant. County Attorney Erin Hammond responded that she would research the relevant procedural requirements and outline steps necessary to implement such a change before any formal action.
