Summary

Commissioners voted to enter a closed session to discuss litigation in County of Wayne v. Lakeshore Signs and Safety LLC after corporation counsel advised that public discussion of strategy would harm the county's litigation or settlement position.

During the Wayne County Government Operations Committee meeting, the clerk introduced an item seeking commission approval of a settlement in County of Wayne v. Lakeshore Signs and Safety LLC. Corporation counsel advised that discussing trial or settlement strategy in open session "will have a detrimental financial effect on the county's litigation or settlement position," and requested the committee move into a closed client–counsel session to discuss strategy.

Commissioner Peterson Mayberry moved to go into closed session and Commissioner Killeen seconded. The chair called for a roll-call vote; the clerk recorded the motion as carried and the committee moved into closed session to discuss the pending litigation.

The transcript records the request for closed session and the motion to enter it; no settlement terms were read into the public record and the committee took no public comment on the item before adjourning into closed session.
