The agenda does not explain what each body would take up separately. It lists the same general order of business for the joint meeting.

Consent calendar · 10 Day Contract

A 10-day contract is on the consent calendar

Item: Consent Item - 10 Day Contract (Agenda)
How handled: All consent items are considered and acted on by one motion (Agenda)
Source: Agenda, Consent Calendar

The agenda lists one consent item described only as a "10 Day Contract." The agenda does not name the contractor, the amount or the purpose.

Under the agenda's rules, all consent items are considered and acted on by a single motion, so this item would not be discussed separately unless a council member pulls it.

Discussion calendar · 10 Day Contract

A second 10-day contract is set for discussion

Item: Discussion Item - 10 Day Contract (Agenda)
Source: Agenda, Discussion Calendar

The discussion calendar lists one item, also described only as a "10 Day Contract." As with the consent item, the agenda gives no contract details.

Items on the discussion calendar are taken up separately rather than in a single consent motion.
