Summary
The City Council voted Jan. 21 to enter an executive session to discuss negotiating strategy and real‑estate acquisition, citing Colorado Revised Statutes §24‑6‑402(4)(e)(I) and §24‑6‑402(4)(a). Councilors moved and seconded the motion and the motion carried.
At the end of the Jan. 21 work session, a council member moved that the council go into executive session "for the purpose of determining positions relative to matters that may be subject to negotiations, developing strategy for negotiations, and/or instructing negotiators under CRS section 24‑6‑402(4)(e)(I), and to discuss the purchase, acquisition, lease, transfer, or sale of any real, personal, or other property interest pursuant to CRS 24‑6‑402(4)(a)." The item was described in the motion as discussion of the purchase of commercial property.
Another council member seconded the motion. The council called the question and members present answered "Aye." The motion included an explicit statement that no adoption of policy, position, resolution, rule, regulation or formal action would occur in executive session that is not open to the public.
The motion carried; the council moved into executive session. The transcript does not record any further public details of the property or negotiations during open session.
