The Town of Smithfield Town Council Monday approved several routine and procedural items by voice vote: approving the meeting agenda as amended, passing the consent agenda (which included authorization to bid a street resurfacing project covering 23 streets), and voting to go into closed session under North Carolina General Statute § 143-318.11(a)(5) and (6).
At the start of the meeting the council considered an addition to the agenda — a request to go into closed session pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-318.11(a)(5) and (6). The council voted to approve the agenda as amended.
Later the council approved the consent agenda by voice vote; town staff noted the consent package included a street-resurfacing project that lists 23 streets for bid and future work. The manager and public works director were thanked by council members for advancing the resurfacing schedule and related maintenance work.
At the end of the open session the council voted to enter closed session under North Carolina’s closed-session statute (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 143-318.11(a)(5) and (6)); the mayor announced the council would move to closed session and the motion carried.
The council used voice votes for these items; no roll-call vote tallies were provided in the record.
