The county posted a four-page agenda. Recrawl of meeting node 1190 on Thursday, August 20 still shows that PDF and nothing labeled packet. This page is the agenda, not a vote table.

Items below are copied from the posted PDF only. The Ledger is not recording dollars, staff recommendations, or votes. None of those appear on the agenda, and no packet is posted on the meeting node.

The county footer says the agenda was posted August 18, 2026 at 4:15 p.m., that items may be added, deleted, or taken out of sequence, and that meeting materials including the packet are supposed to be posted at the Council agendas-and-minutes page. Node 1190 still has the agenda PDF only.
