When reviewing the paperwork from last night's meeting, I noticed something....
In the Consent Agenda, Resolution 12-03-2022 (Amendment to employee handbook), there were
TWO resolutions (one for Fire and one for PD) but only ONE resolution number. Is it possible to
label one Resolution 12-03-2022 A and the other Resolution 12-03-2022 B?
Or, do I need to assign it the next available resolution number and put it in the consent agenda for
next month?
Thank you for your advice.
