GREELEY, Colo. — The Greeley City Council voted on Jan. 14 to enter an executive session to obtain legal advice and determine positions on matters that may be subject to litigation or negotiation.
Councilor Tate moved to go into executive session citing Colorado Revised Statutes 24-6-402(4)(b) and a city code section referenced during the meeting; Councilor Fall seconded the motion. A roll-call vote followed and the council announced it would not return to the public meeting after adjourning to the executive session.
The motion cited statutory authority for attorney–client privileged discussions and negotiating strategy; the council did not disclose further details in open session before recessing. The transcript records the motion, the mover and the second, and the presiding officer’s statement that the council would adjourn into executive session immediately.
