Votes by the Board, except those required by law to be roll call, shall be by voice vote unless a board member requests a roll call vote. An affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast, excluding abstentions, is sufficient to adopt a motion unless a higher percentage of affirmative votes is required by law or board policy.
The Board Secretary-Treasurer shall be responsible for publicly announcing the vote and record the vote in the minutes of the board meetings.
When the Board of Directors votes on the question of holding a closed session, the vote of each member and the reason for holding the closed session by reference to a specific exemption must be announced publicly at the open session and entered into the minutes.
