Council prepares to consider closed‑session items on appointments, property and contracts

City staff read a motion to meet in closed session on Sept. 9, 2025, at 4:19 p.m., citing multiple clauses to govern the closed‑session topics. The motion text (as read at the work session) listed appointments to boards, commissions and committees; disposition of real property in Ward 2 and Ward 7 areas where open discussion would adversely affect negotiating strategy; consultation with legal counsel; and discussion of the award of a public contract. The clerk/readers recited the clause references verbatim during the item. No public record of a final vote or the closed‑session outcome was made in the work session briefing; the motion as read identified the items to be discussed in closed session and the relevant procedural citations supplied by staff.
