Council moves to enter executive session to discuss personnel

During the July work session, a councilmember moved to enter executive session to discuss personnel matters. A second was given and the presiding officer called for a voice vote; the motion carried. The mayor announced earlier in the meeting that the council would go into executive session and would adjourn following that session. No personnel details were discussed on the public record and no votes or staffing decisions were recorded in the public portion of the meeting. The motion recorded in the meeting transcript was: “I make a motion to enter it into executive sessions to discuss personnel.” A councilmember seconded the motion and the presiding officer called for a vote. Because executive sessions and personnel discussions occurred after the public meeting portion, the council did not provide additional public details on personnel actions in the meeting transcript.
