Council votes to enter executive session on real property negotiations near 89A
Summary
The council voted unanimously to move into executive session to discuss negotiation strategy for purchase, sale or lease of parcels south of 89A and near Blue Heron Way; Councilor Fultz confirmed she seconded the motion.
The council voted unanimously to enter an executive session to discuss and instruct attorneys and designated representatives regarding negotiations for the purchase, sale or lease of real property south of 89A (bounded by the Coconino National Forest and Sunset Park) and property in the vicinity of 89A and Blue Heron Way.
A council member moved to go into executive session "to discuss the item you stated, item 3 a," and another member said, "Second." Councilor Fultz later confirmed she was the seconder. The presiding officer called for the ayes; the motion passed unanimously. The roll call earlier in the meeting recorded Mayor Jablow; Vice Mayor Plueg; Councilor Dunne; Councilor Fultz; Councilor Furman; Councilor Kinsella; and Councilor Pfaff as present.
The council cited authority for a closed executive session during the announcement (transcript text: "ARS 38 dash 4 3 1.0317"). The relevant statute authorizing executive sessions for discussions with legal counsel and for matters such as real‑property negotiations is Arizona Revised Statutes §38-431.03. The motion described the subject matter as negotiations over parcels south of 89A bounded by the Coconino National Forest and Sunset Park, and property near 89A and Blue Heron Way.
The transcript does not identify who made the motion by name; the seconder was identified on the record as Councilor Fultz. The council adjourned the open meeting and moved into the executive session, with the presiding officer noting the next meeting or resumed session would begin in about 30 seconds.
