Summary
In a closed session summary announced at the open meeting, the council unanimously authorized the city attorney to defend the city in three specific legal cases listed on the agenda.
After a closed session meeting earlier in the evening, the City Council reported out that it had unanimously authorized the City Attorney and his office to defend the city in three pending court matters that were listed on the closed‑session agenda.
City Manager Mark Wichanski and City Attorney Mike Webb confirmed for the record that outside counsel and human‑resources staff joined the closed session as needed, and that the council’s action was to authorize the city attorney’s office to handle defense of those matters. No further details about the cases were announced in open session.
The council then reconvened the open meeting and continued with its regular agenda.
