Wise County board restates motion 6297, tables reappointments and certifies closed meeting

The Wise County Board of Supervisors handled a string of procedural items late in the session, restating a motion identified as “6297” and taking several follow-up steps.

The Chair repeated the motion, saying, “My motion is 6 2 9 7.” A Committee member offered to make the motion and proposed changing the quarter-fee appropriations to monthly appropriations instead. That member also moved to table action on the listed reappointments until next month, citing an incomplete slate of replacements for District 1. The member said, “My motion would be to table this till next month because, I don't think we have a full slate of replacements or reappointments for the 4 people that are listed, at least not from District 1.” Another speaker indicated that tabling would be acceptable.

The board also approved a certification regarding a recently convened closed meeting. A Committee member moved “to approve the resolution certifying that only public business matters lawfully exempted from open meeting as were identified in the motion convening the closed meeting were discussed or heard by the Board of Supervisors.” The motion was acknowledged and recorded in the discussion.

Finally, the board agreed to recess and reconvene at 10:00 a.m. the following Wednesday in the County Boardroom. The Committee member moved the recess, stating the date and time; the board confirmed the arrangement.

No roll-call vote tallies or formal vote records appear in the transcript for these actions.
