Source Notes
The agenda packet supports the Item 14 request context. The reviewed official-video transcript excerpt supports only the source-limited final-action claim that Item 14 was approved 5-0 and the transcript-stated appointment language. Neither source should be treated as approved minutes, current committee membership, candidate information, hiring outcome, or proof of implementation.
