Consent Voting A consent agenda is a group of routine or procedural items for which there is general consensus among members of the governing body. Generally, a vote is taken on the entire package without discussion to help the governing body conduct its business more efficiently. Moderators can take consent votes with either the manual or online voting method (see the related documents Recording Manual Votes and Recording Online Votes). A single vote is recorded for all items with a type of Action (Consent) regardless of whether the items are organized together or distributed throughout the agenda. In accordance with standard parliamentary procedure, moderators can only take one consent vote during a meeting. When saving the consent vote, moderators will be prompted to confirm voting for all items with the Action (Consent) type in a message window that appears.
