Mayor moves Denver council into closed session to discuss real estate matters
Summary
The mayor moved that the council enter an executive session under DRMC 2-34(a) to receive legal advice and discuss acquisition, sale or use of city real estate; council approved the motion by voice vote and adjourned the public session.
At a short general session, the presiding official moved that the council enter an executive session “pursuant to DRMC 2-34(a), sections 4, 6, and 7, for the purpose of receiving legal advice and the discussion of the acquisition, sale, or use of real estate by the city,” the mayor said.
The motion, raised by the presiding official identified in the transcript as the mayor, was approved by voice vote. The transcript records an affirmative response and a statement that the motion “passes,” but provides no roll-call tally or named votes.
City code cited in the motion was DRMC 2-34(a), sections 4, 6 and 7; the mayor said the executive session’s stated purposes are to receive legal advice and to discuss acquisition, sale or use of real property by the city. Because executive sessions are closed, no further details about the subject matter were announced in the public session.
The council left the public meeting to hold the executive session. In the public portion that preceded the motion, members completed introductions and a brief series of announcements; the public portion then closed for the closed-door discussion.
