Council holds executive session on transaction privilege tax legal options; returns with no action
Summary
The Kingman City Council met in executive session under ARS 38‑431.03(A)(3) to discuss legal options regarding the transaction privilege tax; upon return the council reported no action taken.
The Kingman City Council convened an executive session at the end of its Sept. 2 meeting to discuss legal options regarding the transaction privilege tax. Staff cited Arizona Revised Statutes ARS 38‑431.03(A)(3) as the authority to hold the closed‑door discussion with legal counsel.
The council recessed to executive session by motion, then reconvened in open session later the same meeting. City staff announced that no action was taken following the executive session.
Why it matters: executive sessions under ARS 38‑431.03(A)(3) permit confidential discussion of legal advice on matters where disclosure could affect the city’s position. While the council discussed legal options in closed session, there was no subsequent public action or vote at the meeting that followed.
