Patrick County School Board certifies closed session, approves personnel report and adjourns
Summary
The Patrick County School Board certified a recent closed meeting under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, approved a personnel report as amended by voice vote, then adjourned.
The Patrick County School Board voted to certify a closed meeting under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and then approved a personnel report as amended before adjourning.
The board read a certification required by the Virginia Freedom of Information Act (Va. Code Ann. § 2.2-3700 et seq.). The recited resolution said the board "certifies . . . that only public business matters lawfully exempted from this closed meeting . . . and only such public business were identified and the motion convening the closed were heard, discussed, or considered." Board member Scott responded "Yes," followed by board members Martin and Harold each saying "Yes." The chair then moved to approve the personnel report as amended; the motion was approved by voice vote after the chair called for those in favor to say "aye." The meeting was then adjourned.
The certification is the formal statement required after a closed session under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act that the board discussed only matters allowed by law. The transcript records affirmative votes from three named board members (Scott, Martin and Harold) on the certification. The personnel report was approved by voice vote; no roll call tally for that approval was recorded in the transcript.
No additional substantive deliberation or details about the personnel report's amendments were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt. The meeting concluded shortly after the votes.
