Larimer County commissioners move to executive session on affordable‑housing legal advice and Astrid litigation
Summary
The board voted to enter executive session under Colorado Revised Statute 24‑6‑402(4)(b) and (e) to receive legal advice about affordable housing funding options and to develop strategy and instruct negotiators for Astrid v. Larimer County (federal case no. 23‑cv‑02051). Both motions passed 2‑0.
The Larimer County Board of County Commissioners voted July 15 to move into executive session to receive legal advice and to discuss litigation strategy.
Commissioner John Kefalas moved that the board enter executive session pursuant to Colorado Revised Statute 24‑6‑402(4)(b) to receive legal advice about affordable housing power and funding options for county government; the motion passed with both commissioners in favor.
Kefalas then moved a second executive session under Colorado Revised Statute 24‑6‑402(4)(b) and 24‑6‑402(4)(e) to receive legal advice and to determine positions, develop strategy and instruct negotiators regarding Astrid v. Larimer County, federal district court case number 23‑cv‑02051. That motion also passed 2‑0.
The board adjourned to executive session and did not return to open session before adjourning the administrative matters meeting. The transcript records the statutory citations read aloud at the motion but contains no substantive discussion of the legal matters in open session because those topics were moved to the closed session.
