Minutes: A motion to approve the August and September minutes was made by Andrew Caruana and seconded by John Halen. The motion carried; the committee recorded unanimous approval of the minutes.
Elections: The committee conducted nominations and a roll-call voice vote. John Halen was the sole nominee for chair and received affirmative votes from the committee; COBAC confirmed him as chair for the 2025–26 term. For vice chair, members chose between Liz Woodfin and Amanda Hamer; the roll-call resulted in Amanda Hamer being elected vice chair. COBAC’s charter notes the vice chair is automatically nominated for chair after the chair’s term expires and defines one-year terms for each office.
No other formal votes were taken on motions during the meeting; other substantive items were discussed and either deferred or set for follow-up.
