Board certifies closed session and approves county administrator evaluation and pay increase
Summary
After a closed session held under the Code of Virginia for personnel matters, the Essex County Board of Supervisors certified compliance with FOIA and voted to accept the county administrator's evaluation and provide a subsequent increase.
The Essex County Board of Supervisors convened in closed session under the Code of Virginia to discuss personnel matters, including the performance of the county administrator, and later returned to open session to certify compliance with the Virginia Freedom of Information Act.
A read-back resolution stated the closed session was convened "pursuant to an affirmation recorded vote in accordance with the provisions of the Virginia Freedom of Information Act" and cited the code section on personnel matters. Each board member then verbally certified that only lawfully exempted matters were discussed; each responded, "I certify."
Following the certification, the board moved to accept the county administrator's evaluation and approve the subsequent increase "as discussed" in closed session. The motion carried by voice vote.
Speakers quoted: read-back resolution language as read by a board member and individual certifications.
