Summary
The Board approved a six-item consent agenda, voted to perfect two ordinances (6539 and 6540), authorized an RFQ for civic center redevelopment, and voted to meet in closed session under RSMo 610.021(3) for personnel matters; recorded votes were unanimous on the actions taken at the meeting.
During the meeting the Board approved a six-item consent agenda, perfected two ordinances and directed staff on an RFQ, and then voted to enter closed session under Missouri statute for personnel matters.
The clerk called for approval of the consent agenda and a motion passed; the chair recorded, “Motion carries 5 vote of 8 to 0” in the meeting record. The board then perfected Bill 6539 (ordinance No. 5167) and Bill 6540 (ordinance No. 5168) by roll-call votes recorded as unanimous. Later the Board approved the RFQ motion by voice vote and recorded the outcome as unanimous. Near the end of the meeting a motion was made to adjourn into closed session pursuant to RSMo 610.021(3) (personnel); the motion was seconded and approved by roll call. The clerk’s notation for the closed-session vote reads “Motion carries 5 vote of 8 to 0.”
The closed session vote invoked RSMo 610.021 subsection 3, which allows governmental bodies to close meetings to discuss personnel matters. The meeting record does not contain the details of the personnel discussion or personnel actions taken in closed session.
