Loading...
Summary
The Kennedale EDC voted to recess into executive session under the statutory exemptions read aloud for deliberation on the purchase/exchange/lease value of real property (section 551.072), consultation with counsel (551.071), and economic development negotiations (551.087). No reportable action was announced upon reconvening.
Speaker 4 moved and Speaker 1 seconded a motion to convene the Kennedale Economic Development Corporation into executive session. Speaker 1 read the statutory bases for the executive session: "551.072, deliberation regarding the purchase, exchange or lease value of real property;" "551.071, consultation with counsel on legal matters;" and "551.087, deliberation regarding economic development negotiation." The board recessed into executive session at approximately 6:04 p.m.
When the board reconvened, Speaker 1 stated there was nothing to report and that there were no motions resulting from the executive session. No public details were disclosed about the matters discussed in executive session; the meeting proceeded to adjournment.
The transcript records the statutory exemptions read aloud but does not record the subject property, parties to negotiations or legal counsel names. The reading of exemptions and the board's subsequent announcement that there was "nothing to report" are the only recordable actions tied to the executive session in this meeting's public record.
