Council adopts amended agenda and moves to executive session; roll-call votes recorded
Summary
Council adopted the work-session agenda with an amendment to add a core campus estoppel agreement to executive session, then voted to enter executive session to discuss redevelopment of Capital City Stadium and contractual negotiations (Vista bid and core campus). Roll-call votes were recorded for both motions.
At the start of the work session council members moved to adopt the meeting agenda with one amendment to add a “core campus estoppel agreement” to the executive session. The motion to adopt the agenda was seconded and passed on roll call. Later the council voted to enter executive session to discuss: the proposed location and provision of services in connection with a redevelopment project (Capital City Stadium) and negotiations incident to proposed contractual arrangements regarding the Vista bid and the core campus estoppel agreement. The executive-session motion was seconded and passed on roll call.
Motion and roll call for agenda adoption: The motion as read was to “adopt the agenda as listed with 1 amendment” (adding the core campus estoppel agreement to executive session). The motion was seconded and the clerk conducted a roll call. Council members recorded votes for the motion (transcript roll call names and responses appear below).
Motion and roll call to enter executive session: The council then made and seconded a motion to enter executive session under state statutory authority cited on the record. The clerk read the roll; members recorded affirmative votes and the council cleared the chamber for closed session.
Legal citations: Council cited South Carolina statutes when announcing the reason for closed session: SC Code §30-4-70(a)(2) (negotiations incident to proposed contractual arrangements) and SC Code §34-78-5 (discussion related to location or expansion of business/development matters) as read into the record.
Ending: No formal public actions (ordinance adoptions or contract awards) were taken in open session on these items; the matters were moved to executive session for confidential discussion.
