Summary

Columbus County commissioners left closed session after discussing two potential litigation matters and two personnel matters without taking action, then approved the meeting’s general count and adjourned.

Columbus County commissioners returned to open session after meeting in closed session and reported that they had discussed two matters of possible future litigation and two personnel matters; the board took no action on those items.

Commissioner Watts moved to end the closed session and return to the public record; Commissioner Floyd seconded the motion and commissioners indicated approval, after which the meeting resumed in regular session. The transcript records no roll-call tally for that vote.

Later in the meeting, Commissioner Burge moved that “the general count be approved as presented,” and Commissioner Bullard seconded; the motion was carried. Commissioner Smith then moved to adjourn, with Commissioner Burge seconding, and the board adjourned following a verbal assent from commissioners.

The record contains no further detail on the two litigation matters or the two personnel matters discussed in closed session, and no formal actions or directives related to those matters were recorded in the public minutes.
