Marietta council held executive session to discuss pending litigation and sale/lease of property; resumed with vote 6-0
Summary
During agenda review the council voted to enter executive session to discuss pending litigation and the sale or lease of property; they reconvened later and recorded a 6-0 vote to come out of executive session.
At the agenda-review meeting the council voted to enter executive session with two stated purposes: pending litigation and the sale or lease of property. A council member moved to go into executive session for those two reasons; another council member seconded, and the mayor called for the vote. The mayor announced "Motion carries." (no tally given for the entry vote in the agenda-review transcript).
Council members moved to the back for the executive session. Later in the record a member moved to reconvene (come out of executive session); that motion was seconded and the mayor announced, "Motion carries six-zero." The transcript does not record the substantive details discussed during the executive session in open proceedings; the stated reasons were pending litigation and sale/lease of city property.
The agenda-review transcript records the procedural motions to enter and exit the executive session and the final 'six-zero' vote to reconvene but does not contain the confidential deliberations that occurred in the closed session.
