The budget amendment is published with its exact figure and both sides of the transfer named, is noticed as a hearing, and is decided by roll call vote — the strongest form this agenda could take. The rest of the meeting is recognitions and comment. A 4:00 p.m. work session covering managed parking, wildland fire deployment and a proposed O-1 Open Space zone text amendment carries no action and is not counted here.
