Board votes to enter executive session to discuss potential litigation
Summary
The board voted to enter executive session to discuss potential litigation after a motion by Commissioner Stowers, seconded by Commissioner Bruce; the chair counted four hands in favor and the board recessed to executive session, planning to return at 6:00 p.m.
County Attorney Miss Davis said the board needed an executive session to discuss litigation. Commissioner Stowers moved to go into executive session to discuss potential litigation; Commissioner Bruce seconded the motion. The chair called for a vote by show of hands and announced "4 of them." The board recessed to executive session and planned to return at 6:00 p.m.
Why it matters: executive sessions for litigation permit commissioners and the county attorney to discuss privileged legal strategy outside the public meeting; the public record shows only that an executive session was called and approved.
Next steps: the board moved into executive session; no further public details were provided at the work session.
