T. Adoption of the General Consent Report  
All items appearing on the agenda under "Adoption of the General Consent  
Report(s)" means that all items appearing on the agenda under this topic  
are approved in one motion per consent report unless a Board member  
requests that an item be removed and voted on separately or otherwise  
acted upon. Items so removed from a General Consent Report shall be  
considered separately in the agenda immediately after that General  
Consent Report (unless otherwise moved with other items by a Board  
member) 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(s), thereafter, shall be adopted in a single motion per consent report.

Adoption of General Consent Report - General Obligation Bonds  
Measures B, J and Y  
All items appearing on the agenda under "Adoption of the General Consent  
Report(s)" means that all items appearing on the agenda under this topic  
are approved in one motion per consent report unless a Board member  
requests that an item be removed and voted on separately or otherwise  
acted upon. Items so removed from a General Consent Report shall be  
considered separately in the agenda immediately after that General  
Consent Report (unless otherwise moved with other items by a Board  
member) 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(s), thereafter, shall be adopted in a single motion per consent report.
