St. Mary's County commissioners approve May 6 minutes, vote to enter executive session on potential property acquisitions
Summary
At the May 13, 2014 meeting, commissioners approved the May 6 minutes and voted to enter executive session to discuss potential open-space property acquisitions; the executive-session motion passed with one recorded nay but that dissent was not named in the public record.
The Board of County Commissioners for St. Mary's County, Maryland, on May 13, 2014 approved the minutes of its May 6 meeting and voted to enter executive session to discuss potential open-space property acquisitions.
Commissioner Lawrence D. Jarboe moved to approve the May 6 minutes; Commissioner Daniel L. Morris seconded the motion. After no further discussion, the board voted in favor: "Ayes have it, motion carried," the chair said.
Later in the meeting, the commissioners voted to go into executive session for the purpose of discussing potential open-space property acquisitions. Commissioner Todd B. Morgan moved to enter executive session; Commissioner Morris seconded. The public record shows one commissioner voiced opposition. The chair announced, "1 nay, ayes have it," and the board recessed to executive session with an anticipated return time announced by the chair.
Both votes were procedural and reflected routine meeting business; no public details about the property acquisition subject were released at the time the board recessed to executive session.
