St. Louis County committee votes 7-0 to enter closed session to review auditor applicants
Summary
A St. Louis County committee on Aug. 26 voted unanimously to enter a closed executive session to consider final applicants for the county auditor position; the move was taken under statutory authority cited on the record and the chamber recessed for the closed session.
Madam Chair called a St. Louis County committee meeting to order Tuesday and announced the panel would "be going to be discussing, the final applicants for the position of the St. Louis County Auditor," before asking for a motion to enter an executive session to consider those applicants.
An unidentified member moved to go into closed session and the chair seconded. The motion as read on the record cited statutory language: "RSM 6 10.02113 and 13 and section 114.020.113 and 13 SLCRO." The clerk then took a roll call vote. Council Members Days, Bangert, Hancock, Webb, Clancy, Archer and Harder each recorded "aye," and the clerk announced, "on the motion to go into closed session, you have 7 ayes." The chair then instructed staff to prepare the chamber for closed session.
The meeting recessed for the closed executive session and later returned to open session. Madam Chair called for a motion to adjourn, which was moved and seconded; the ayes were called and the meeting adjourned.
The transcript does not record discussion or decisions made during the closed session. The motion on the record concerned only whether to convene the closed executive session to consider final applicants for the county auditor post; no hire, appointment, or further personnel action is recorded in the public portion of the meeting.
