Knox County Commission chair moves to executive session under statute; meeting resumes and adjourns
Summary
At a short special meeting called for Friday, Feb. 14, the Knox County Commission moved into an executive session to consult with legal counsel under 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(E). The commission later returned to open session, scheduled its next regular meeting and adjourned after a recorded vote.
The chair called the Knox County Commission to order for a special meeting on Friday, February 14 and moved that the panel convene an executive session to consult with legal counsel pursuant to the statute referenced in the record.
“I will call this Friday, February 14, special meeting in the Knox County Commission to order,” the chair said. The chair asked for public comment and, receiving none, asked for a motion “to convene an executive session for a consultation with our legal counsel pursuant to 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(E).” A motion and a second were recorded and the chair announced the commission would reconvene in executive session.
The meeting proceeded out of the public record; the chair later returned the meeting to open session and welcomed attendees back. The chair announced the commission’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday at 2:00 (the transcript did not specify a.m. or p.m.).
The chair then moved to adjourn. After a second, the chair called the vote and recorded “2 in favor, not opposed,” and declared the meeting adjourned.
No other substantive agenda items, debate, votes on ordinances or contracts, or named public commenters appear in the public portion of the record.
