Council recesses into closed session to discuss Atlantic Park and personnel; certification follows
Summary
At the special session the council voted to recess into closed session to receive legal briefings on Atlantic Park and to discuss personnel and appointees. A roll call showed council members in favor and the council later certified the closed session.
At the conclusion of the public briefings the mayor moved that the City Council recess into a closed session under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act exceptions for legal consultation and personnel matters. The stated purposes were legal advice regarding Atlantic Park and personnel matters involving council boards, commissions and appointees.
The motion was moved and seconded on the record. A roll call in the transcript recorded affirmative responses ("Aye") from council members present; the public transcript records multiple affirmative votes but does not list a full named roll call in sequence. The council recessed into closed session and later returned to open session. After the closed session the council voted to certify the closed‑session compliance; the transcript records a moved and seconded certification motion and a subsequent statement that the council certified the closed session.
