Emery County Commission votes to enter closed session over Cleveland Reservoir litigation
Summary
The Emery County Commission moved to a closed session to discuss pending and reasonably imminent litigation tied to the Cleveland Reservoir; a voice vote recorded three "aye" responses, while the transcript does not show a full roll call or identify the motion's mover and seconder.
The Emery County Commission voted Monday to enter a closed session to discuss pending and reasonably imminent litigation related to the Cleveland Reservoir. An unidentified meeting speaker read the motion, saying the session was "to discuss pending and reasonable imminent litigation regarding the proceedings with Cleveland Reservoir."
The announcement came as the commission moved to item 10 on the agenda. Meeting audio indicates a motion was made and seconded, but the transcript does not identify who moved or who seconded. During the vote, three members were recorded as responding "Aye": Warwood, Leonard and Jensen. The transcript stops short of recording a full roll call or additional votes.
The closed session was described explicitly as addressing litigation. No further details about the claims, parties, timeline or legal counsel were provided in the public portion of the record. The commission’s motion and the limited vote record were the only formal actions captured in the transcript provided.
The meeting record does not show subsequent public action or a return to open session in the supplied transcript. The commission may address the matter further once the closed session concludes or in a future public meeting, but no next steps were recorded here.
