A quick definition of substantive main motion:

A substantive main motion is a request made during a meeting or assembly for a decision to be made on a specific topic. It is a formal way of proposing an idea or action to be taken. This type of motion is different from other types of motions, such as calendar motions or contradictory motions, because it directly relates to the main purpose of the meeting or assembly. It is important to follow proper procedures when making a substantive main motion to ensure that it is considered and voted on fairly.

A more thorough explanation:

A substantive main motion is a formal proposal made during a meeting or assembly that suggests a course of action or decision to be taken by the group. It is the primary way for members to introduce new business or ideas to the group for consideration and action.

For example, a member of a school board may make a substantive main motion to propose a new policy for student discipline. This motion would need to be seconded by another member and then discussed and voted on by the entire board.

Another example could be a member of a community organization making a substantive main motion to allocate funds for a new community center. This motion would also need to be seconded and then discussed and voted on by the members of the organization.

Overall, a substantive main motion is an important tool for members to bring new ideas and proposals to a group for consideration and action.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs
