Where a motion included an explicit mover/second on the record, that information is shown. Most votes were carried by voice vote with recorded "aye" responses; no roll-call tallies were provided in the transcript for many items. Items handled as discussion (insurance renewal, HRRR grant pursuit, bridge planning, laydown yard lease) were moved to follow-up work rather than immediate votes.
