Description:
A consent agenda is a practice by which regular and non-controversial board action items are organized apart from the rest of the agenda and approved as a group. This includes all of the business items that require formal board approval and yet because they are not controversial, there is no need for board discussion before taking a vote. Items may be on the consent agenda only if all board members agree. Any board member, for any reason, may remove a consent agenda item and place it on the regular agenda for the board meeting.
Recommended Motion(s):
Approve Consent Agenda. This motion, made by {Insert Board Member} and seconded by {Insert Board Member}, {Insert Action Result}.
