The Routt County Board of County Commissioners voted to go into executive session on Sept. 15 to receive legal advice about courthouse‑lawn use under Colorado statute CRS section 24‑6‑402(4)(b).
On the record, the chair moved the board into executive session for the purpose of receiving legal advice under the cited statute and cautioned participants that the discussion would be attorney‑client privileged and not electronically reported. The motion was seconded, the board voted in favor and entered the executive session; the session concluded at 11:26.
Afterward the board stated on the public record who had been present in the attorney‑client session: the three commissioners, County Manager Jay Harrington and three attorneys from the county attorney’s office (Linea South, Nick Hale and Matthew Frederickson).
