O. Adoption of the General Consent Report  
Adoption of the General Consent Report means that all items appearing on  
the agenda under this topic are approved in one motion per consent report  
unless a Board or committee member requests that an item be removed and  
voted on separately or otherwise acted upon. Items so removed from a  
named Consent Report shall be considered separately in the agenda  
immediately after that named Consent Report (unless otherwise moved with  
other items by a Board member) is adopted or otherwise acted upon and  
there shall be no additional or separate public comment on those items.  
Generally, these items are routine in nature, and are acted upon in one  
motion to conserve time and permit focus on other than routine items on  
the agenda. An item on a General Consent Report which a member has  
requested be removed, shall be removed,  
without debate for separate consideration and vote or other disposition. All  
items remaining on the General Consent Report, thereafter, shall be adopted  
in a single motion. There shall be public comments on this section, which  
shall not exceed 10 minutes.
