To clarify, there's no agenda item on irradiated beef on the board's
agenda today.  But individual citizens are free to raise that or any
issue in the public comment period at the end of board meetings.  That's
not likely to produce a board discussion today for two reasons.  One,
the board usually lets citizens speak without getting into an immediate
discussion.  Two, the board discussed this matter in mid-March and
decided informally not to change its policy on purchasing irradiated
beef, which is not to have a policy.  I did a brief story on this, but
it apparently never appeared in the paper.
