The Los Banos City Council met in special session Aug. 25 and entered a closed session to consider applicants for the city manager and city attorney positions, then returned saying there was no reportable action, the council's presiding official said.
The closed session was held under California Government Code section 54957(b), which allows local agencies to meet privately on public employment matters. The presiding official said the council engaged in "a lot of discussion, and a lot of direction to staff," but did not announce any hires or other reportable decisions at the meeting's conclusion.
Before the closed session, councilmembers approved the special meeting agenda by motion and second and adopted it by voice vote. The council also opened the public forum for comments but recorded no speakers.
The meeting record indicates the closed session focused specifically on applicants for two positions — city manager and city attorney — but the council did not disclose personnel decisions or a timetable for next steps in public session. The presiding official said any formal decision would be made public through a vote if one is taken.
