Washington County commissioners unanimously move to executive session to discuss labor negotiations
Summary
At the close of its Jan. 16 work session, the Washington County Board of Commissioners voted 5‑0 to enter executive session under ORS 192.660(2)(d) to discuss labor negotiations.
Chair Harrington moved the board into executive session at the end of the Jan. 16 work session under Oregon statute ORS 192.660(2)(d) to discuss possible labor negotiations. A motion to move to executive session was made and the board voted unanimously, 5 to 0, in favor.
Why it matters: Executive sessions under ORS 192.660(2)(d) allow public bodies to meet in private to discuss labor negotiations. The transcript records the motion and the unanimous vote to convene the closed session but does not record the identities of the motion’s mover or seconder, nor any deliberations that occurred within the closed session.
Record: The board’s vote to enter executive session was taken by voice/hand and recorded as 5–0 in favor; no further public actions were recorded while the body moved into closed session.
