Lake County commissioners meet in executive session to discuss county property negotiations; certify no decisions made
Summary
The Lake County Board of County Commissioners held a brief special meeting at 10 a.m. to go into an executive session under Colorado law to discuss strategy and instruct negotiators on potential negotiations over county property; the board certified that no decisions were made during the closed session.
At 10 a.m., the Lake County Board of County Commissioners convened a special meeting and voted to go into an executive session to consider positions and strategy related to possible negotiations over the use and development of county property.
The commissioners cited Colorado Revised Statutes 24-6-402(4)(e) as the authority for the closed session, which permits public bodies to meet privately to develop negotiation strategy and instruct negotiators on matters that may be subject to negotiations.
County Commissioner Elsa Clark, County Commissioner Matolic and Commissioner Lee were listed as present for the executive session, along with Deputy County Manager Lawrence Snyder, County Attorney Chris Floyd and County Manager Candace Bryant. The motion to enter executive session was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.
After the closed meeting, a motion to end the executive session was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote. An unidentified meeting participant certified, "no decisions were made." The board then adjourned the special meeting.
The transcript records only the procedural motions to enter and exit the executive session, the statutory citation for the closed-session authority, the list of officials and staff present, and the certification that no formal decisions resulted from the private discussion. No public actions, directives for immediate public policy change, contract awards, budget votes or other substantive public decisions were recorded in the transcript of this special meeting.
Meeting minutes or subsequent public records would be the place to check for any follow-up actions or public-facing motions that arise from negotiation strategy developed in the closed session.
