Board enters closed session to discuss broadband investment negotiations, then certifies closed session
Summary
The Board voted to go into a closed session under Virginia FOIA §2.2‑3711(A)(6) to discuss broadband investment and bargaining; the board later reconvened in open session and certified the closed meeting by roll call.
The Orange County Board of Supervisors voted to enter a closed session to discuss broadband investment and related bargaining strategies, invoking the exemption in the Virginia Freedom of Information Act for competitive or bargaining matters.
The county attorney recommended the motion, citing the Code of Virginia: Section 2.2‑3711(A)(6). A motion to enter closed session was made and seconded; the board voted to enter closed session. After the closed session the board reconvened in open session and conducted a certification roll call in which each member affirmed that, to the best of their knowledge, only matters identified in the motion had been discussed and only such business as identified in the motion had been heard, discussed or considered. The certification roll call recorded “aye” votes from Mister Marshall, Miss Hale, Mister Nickel, Chairman Johnson and Mister Van Hoeven.
The board then took a motion to adjourn and ended the meeting.
