At a meeting with all five members present, the Carlsbad City Council recessed into closed session to consider performance evaluations for the city manager and city attorney and to confer with labor negotiators under Government Code sections 54957 and 54957.6.

The Carlsbad City Council recessed into closed session after a roll call that recorded all five members present, the clerk said.

The clerk told the council, “Please take us into closed session,” and then outlined two items to be discussed: a public employee performance evaluation and a conference with labor negotiators. The clerk cited Government Code sections 54957 and 54957.6 as the statutory authority for the closed session.

The clerk identified the city employees whose performance evaluations would be discussed as the city manager and the city attorney. The clerk also named the negotiators who will participate in the labor-negotiations item: Judy von Kalinowski, the city’s human resources director, and Allison Albert of the law firm Best, Best and Krieger. The clerk said the unrepresented council will be assisted by Lisonbee Alpert of Best, Best and Krieger.
