Summary
At a special meeting, the Nampa City Council voted unanimously to adjourn into executive session under Idaho Code § 74-206(1)(e) to consider preliminary negotiations involving matters of trade or commerce; the meeting will reconvene at 6:00 p.m.
At a special meeting, the Nampa City Council voted to adjourn into executive session "pursuant to Idaho Code § 74-206(1)(e) to consider preliminary negotiation involving matters of trade or commerce in which the governing body is in competition with governing bodies in other states or nations," the presiding official said.
The move passed on a roll-call vote with all members present voting yes. Councilmembers recorded as present during the meeting were Councilmember Rodriguez, Councilmember Tangula, Councilmember Hills, Councilmember Reynolds, Councilmember Hammerfield and Councilmember Griffin.
The presiding official called for a motion to enter executive session and noted the statutory authority by citation. The council moved and seconded the motion (mover and seconder not specified on the public record) and then took a roll-call vote. The presiding official later said, "This executive session will actually take place in the room behind us, so we will adjourn into executive session, and we'll be back ready to go at 6 o'clock."
The transcript available for this meeting records only the procedural motion and the roll-call vote to enter executive session; no substantive negotiations or deliberations on the economic matter were disclosed in the public record provided. Under Idaho Code § 74-206(1)(e), preliminary negotiations of this type may be discussed in a closed session.
The council adjourned into the executive session and planned to reconvene the public meeting at 6:00 p.m.
