Council votes unanimously to enter closed session to discuss labor negotiations and receive legal advice
Summary
The Salt Lake City Council voted unanimously to go into closed session to discuss labor negotiations and receive advice from counsel; roll call recorded all members present voting in favor.
At the end of the public briefing, Council member Petrov moved that the council enter a closed session "for the purpose of labor negotiations and advice of counsel." Council member Dugan seconded the motion. The chair called a roll‑call vote; each council member recorded an affirmative vote and the motion passed unanimously.
The chair instructed members not authorized to attend the legislative briefing to wait outside and said the closed session would follow the dinner and legislative briefing portions of the meeting.
Why it matters: closed sessions are allowed under state law for labor negotiations and legal advice; the council’s unanimous vote authorized the mayor’s office and council to proceed in a closed, attorney‑client setting.
