After meeting in executive session under ORS 192.660(2)(e) and (h), the Crook County Board of Commissioners returned to open session on June 18 and directed designated staff and agents to take actions discussed in closed session.

County counsel summarized the open-session motion language: for the matter under subsection (e) (real property negotiations), counsel recommended a motion to "direct the county's agents to correspond with the other parties as discussed in the executive session." For the matter under subsection (h) (consultation with counsel regarding litigation or likely litigation), counsel recommended a motion to "direct the designated staff and agents to correspond with the other parties and to act as discussed in the executive session." Board members made and seconded both motions, which passed in open session.

No details of the executive-session deliberations were disclosed, consistent with the statutory limits on reporting; counsel reminded the public that no decisions are made in executive session and that media representatives were allowed to attend but not to report deliberations. The board recorded the motions and votes in open session; both motions passed with the commissioners present voting in favor.

County staff were directed to carry out the correspondence and follow-up described in executive session; the motions did not include further public direction or detailed timelines in the open record.
