An unidentified Patrick County governing group conducted a short business session that included a formal certification of a prior closed session, a direction to return a hospital record, and an adjournment to Monday, Feb. 9, 2026.

Speaker 2 moved to "certify that to the best of each member's knowledge" that the matters discussed in the closed session were limited to the matters announced when the body entered closed session. (Speaker 2's words in the transcript: "I move to certify that to the best of each member's knowledge, 1 on the public business matter long way taken from open meeting departments and 2 on the public business matter as we identified on the motion to enter the closed session or heard, discussed, or considered during the closed session.") The body then took a roll-call vote. Mister Marshall recorded his vote as "Not so to certify." Mister Kendrick, Mister Swinney (transcript spelling), Mister Wood, and the presiding speaker voted "Aye." The certification motion was approved with one recorded dissent.

The body next debated and approved a motion to "move the hospital book back to the hospital" and directed the county administrator to coordinate that transfer with the hospital. Speaker 1 introduced the motion and said, "I will entertain a motion to move the hospital book back to the hospital, and direct the county administrator to coordinate that with the hospital." A second was recorded and the motion passed on a roll-call vote with all recorded votes in the transcript marked "Aye."

Finally, Speaker 2 moved to adjourn; after a second and an affirmative roll-call, the meeting was adjourned. The transcript states the body is adjourned until Monday, 02/09/2026.

The transcript does not identify the name of the governing body or provide meeting date or agenda text for the first motion recorded; several speaker name spellings are inconsistent in the transcript (see audit). All direct quotations above are reproduced from the transcript and attributed to the generic speaker labels used in the record.
