From the transcript

I would like the board's, um, I guess, opportunity to object. It's in the operating procedures. I would like to have a sort of unorthodox— with regard to like Robert's Rules, majority consensus— and put an operating procedure where a non-majority voice, if one occurs, will always be able to dictate a specific part of the committee's reporting. Um, so the, the main deliverable of the committee is a report to the other 3 committees of the district. If any part of the business comes through with like a 2-1 vote, I would like the, the charter to require the committee to have that minority 1 vote get a narrative opportunity to explain itself in the report.
