SEWER AUTHORITY MID-COASTSIDE BOARD MEETING NOTES & GUIDELINES

 

In the case of an emergency, items may be added to the Agenda by a majority vote of the Board of Directors. An emergency is defined as a work stoppage; a crippling disaster; or other activity, which severely imperils public health, safety, or both. Also, items that arise after the posting of the Agenda may be added by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors.

 

All matters listed under the Consent Calendar will be voted upon by one motion. There will be no separate discussion of these items, unless a Board Director, staff member, or member of the public requests that a particular item(s) be removed from the Consent Calendar, in which case the item will be considered separately by the Board. Consent Agenda Items are expected to be routine and non-controversial. Recommended action will be taken at the beginning of the meeting with or without discussion.
