Camp Verde council recesses into executive session to discuss Rodeo Grounds lease amendment
Summary
The Camp Verde Town Council met Nov. 10, 2025, and voted 7-0 to enter an executive session under Arizona statute to consult with attorneys about a proposed amendment to the Rodeo Grounds Lease Agreement with the Camp Verde Arena Association; the council returned and adjourned at 7:51 p.m.
Camp Verde Mayor Marie Moore called a special session of the Town Council to order at 6:00 p.m. on Nov. 10, 2025, at 385 S. Main Street.
Councilor Robert Foreman moved that the council recess into an executive session to receive legal advice and to instruct its attorneys regarding contracts that are subject to negotiation. Councilor Patricia Seybold seconded the motion, and a roll-call vote recorded unanimous support: Mayor Moore, Vice Mayor Wendy Escoffier and Councilors Brian Bolton, Robert Foreman, Robin Godwin, Jessie Murdock and Patricia Seybold voted aye; the motion carried 7-0.
The item the council identified for closed-session consultation was an amendment to the Rodeo Grounds Lease Agreement between the Town of Camp Verde and the Camp Verde Arena Association. The council cited A.R.S. § 38-431.03(A)(3), (A)(4) and (A)(7) as the legal basis for meeting in executive session to obtain legal advice, discuss contract negotiations and instruct counsel on matters that could affect litigation or negotiation strategy.
Town Manager Miranda Fisher and Town Attorney Amy Chan were recorded as present. The public minutes show the council returned from the executive session to the special session at 7:51 p.m., at which point Mayor Moore adjourned the meeting.
Because the council met in executive session to receive confidential legal advice and to instruct attorneys about contract negotiations, the public record does not include details of the discussion or any negotiated terms. The minutes later were certified by Town Manager Miranda Fisher on Nov. 20, 2025.
