The Carroll County Economic Development Authority on May 20, 2025, approved the minutes from its April meeting and accepted the treasurer's report and invoices, then briefly entered a closed session citing Code of Virginia §2.2‑3711 before returning to certify the closed meeting.
The certification adopted after the closed session recited that the meeting had been closed by affirmative recorded vote under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and stated that, to the best of each member’s knowledge, only matters lawfully exempt from the Act were discussed. After the chair asked each member to certify, five board members responded, “I certify.”
Meeting business was otherwise routine. The board opened with the pledge of allegiance and an invocation, noted there were no speakers during citizen’s time, approved the April minutes by voice vote and then approved the treasurer’s report and payment of invoices. The board voted unanimously to go into a closed session under the cited Virginia code section; the board later voted unanimously to return to regular session and adopted the required certification.
No substantive details of the closed session were disclosed in the public record. The meeting adjourned after the certification.
The meeting transcript shows brief procedural discussion only; no new business or substantive public comments were recorded for the public portion of the meeting.
