The San Marcos City Council voted Friday to convene an executive session under Texas Government Code §551.074 to discuss personnel matters related to an appointee evaluation process.
Councilmember Rodriguez moved to go into executive session, and Councilmember Gonzales seconded the motion, which the council announced as passing with the tally “6 2 0 with 1 absent.” The council went into executive session at 3:32 a.m.
The motion directed the council to meet in closed session “pursuant to section 551.074 of the Texas Government Code [for] personnel matters to deliberate the rules and responsibilities of the city council regarding an appointee evaluation process,” according to the meeting record.
Before the council left the public meeting, the presiding officer said, “Going into executive session at 03:32. My apologies. I did not get everything printed. I'm gonna go do that now, and I will meet y'all back there.”
Texas Government Code §551.074 authorizes a governmental body to meet in closed session to deliberate personnel matters; the council cited that section when making the motion.
The council's statement and the motion provided the formal basis for the closed meeting; no substantive deliberations from the executive session are recorded in the public transcript excerpt. The council indicated it would reconvene following the executive session.
