Decisions were made by the Board in 2003, 2004, and 2005. However a formal list of resolutions was not kept. For meetings and decisions made after the first two community trustees were elected in mid-2004, see the meeting minutes from 2004.

• Approve means the board member voted and this vote was YES.
• Oppose means the board member voted and this vote was NO.
• Abstain means the board member voted and this vote was "no opinion". An abstention counts as a vote.
• Missing means the board member was not present at the board meeting, or did not come to vote on the wiki page. Like abstentions, this counts as a vote.
• Recuse means the board member was present, but did not vote because of a declared conflict-of-interest. A recusal does not count as a vote.

A resolution passes with a majority present voting yes.

The Board passes Resolutions and Votes; the former are formal decisions that must be made public; the latter are routine decisions such as advisory board appointments, approval of minutes for publication, or changes to internal Board processes.

Votes are often not published as such, but the result of the Votes is usually made public — for instance, minutes are published once a Vote to approve them has concluded; and minutes always list any Votes taken during a meeting.

Passed Resolutions are published unless otherwise requested by the Chair; failed Resolutions are generally not published.

For several years, the Board adopted the use of a consent agenda. A consent agenda is a set of resolutions that the Board votes on at once.

• Board meetings (with approved minutes of past meetings)
• Failed resolutions (only some older failed resolutions are posted, see "understanding resolutions" above; as of 2026 there is no policy about posting failed resolutions)
• Resolution:Board deliberations (July 2010)
• Resolution:Consent resolutions (February 2006)
