- Closed or Executive Session

- Agenda
- An outline of the items to be discussed or acted upon at a meeting.

- The consent agenda items are considered routine, or are in accordance with Board policy or contractual commitments. In the interest of time, these items are voted upon in one encompassing motion. Any member of the Board may request that an item, or part thereof, be removed from the consent Agenda and discussed separately. Upon approval all Consent Agenda items are considered approved by a roll call vote unless the vote is different and so noted. The items listed in the Consent Agenda are available for inspection at the time of the meeting.
