The board voted to enter executive session to receive legal advice on pending litigation (Adamie Hernick v. Pueblo County), an employee matter that may lead to litigation, and to discuss negotiating strategy for potential contracts; motion carried and the board entered executive session.

The Board of County Commissioners voted to enter executive session to receive legal advice and develop negotiation strategy on several matters.

County Attorney Cynthia Mitchell asked for an executive session under Colorado Revised Statutes Section 24-6-402(4)(b) and (e) to receive legal advice on pending litigation — specifically Adamie Hernick v. Pueblo County — and an employee matter that may result in litigation, and to develop strategy and instruct negotiators on potential contracts with Ciate related to the Bridal of Honor Boulevard and the Sky project and potential contracts for café/food-cart vendors.

Commissioner Miles Lucero moved to go into executive session and Commissioner Paula McPheeters seconded. The board chair called for the vote; the transcript records two explicit “aye” responses and the chair stated the body was in executive session.
