The Imperial County Board of Supervisors met in a special session on April 1, 2025, and voted to convene a closed session to discuss a possible public-employee disciplinary matter and anticipated litigation; the board later reported that direction was given but no reportable action was taken.
The board opened with roll call and routine business. Supervisors approved the order of the agenda, the consent calendar and the official proceedings from March 25, 2025, by motions that carried without recorded roll-call tallies in the transcript. The board then voted to convene to closed session.
The motion to convene to closed session was made by Supervisor Escobar and seconded by Supervisor Peggy Price; the motion carried. In the subsequent closed session the board addressed two items: a public-employee discipline, dismissal or release matter cited under Government Code section 54957(b)(1), and an anticipated-litigation matter described under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(2). Mr. Havens reported out that “direction was given” on the personnel matter and that no reportable action was taken. On the anticipated-litigation item the report noted that an objection was given and that no reportable action was taken.
No public comment was received during the public comment period. The meeting adjourned at 3:23 p.m., according to the clerk's announcement.
