Votes

Every agenda item with a recorded vote, and a search of the County’s staff reports. Contested items are shown unless you search or choose otherwise; most Board votes are unanimous.

Search reads each file’s title and the County’s staff report. All the words must appear; put a phrase in “quotation marks”. Word endings are ignored, so evict finds eviction. A word in capitals is taken as an acronym: ICE will not find an ice rink.

803 items, page 4 of 33

Items the County marked as concerning District 5, alone or with other districts. Countywide items are not included, so this is what staff saw as District 5’s business, not everything that affects it.
