Minneapolis Administration and Enterprise Oversight Committee Chair Robin Wensley on Tuesday added a gift acceptance request from the Public Rights Project to the committee's agenda and then moved to approve a 25-item consent agenda that included the gift, multiple contract amendments and several legal settlements.

Wensley introduced the proposed addition, saying printed copies were before the committee and that the item — a request to accept travel, lodging and meal expenses from the Public Rights Project for City Attorney Kristen Anderson and Assistant City Attorney Sarah Lathrop — would be placed at agenda item 25. "There are printed copies of the request for council action in front of us," Wensley said.

When Wensley asked if there was any discussion, none was offered and she put the addition to a voice vote. After the committee answered "aye," Wensley said, "That motion carries."

The chair then presented the consent agenda, which she said contained 25 items, including gift acceptances, bids and contract amendments for public sidewalk snow and ice removal; Target Center steam station improvements; work on the Fridley Water Treatment Campus; master contracts for workforce development providers; remote interpreting services; community trauma response services; multiple immigration legal services contracts; a cooperative funding agreement with the Minnesota Historical Society for the St. Anthony Falls Heritage Board; advisory committee appointments; property tax and special assessment filings; an outcomes milestone update; several legal settlements; and a payroll ordinance public hearing set for Dec. 1, 2025.

Wensley moved to approve the consent agenda and called for a voice vote. The committee responded "aye" and the chair said, "The ayes have it. Those items carried." Cashman was noted as absent during roll call; the clerk announced five members present and a quorum.

No substantive debate or roll-call votes on individual consent items were recorded in the transcript. The committee adjourned shortly afterward.
