Summary

Following an executive session, the council directed staff to amend the city manager's contract as discussed and asked the city manager to prepare a resolution making the interim city attorney the city attorney with annual performance evaluations in April; both motions passed 7–0.

After convening in closed executive session, the Liberty Hill City Council returned to open session and approved two personnel directions: (1) direct staff to amend the city manager's contract as discussed in executive session; and (2) direct the city manager to prepare a resolution to appoint the interim city attorney as city attorney, to have that attorney report day-to-day to the city manager, and to provide the council with a performance evaluation in April each year.

Council member (speaker 1) moved to direct staff to amend the city manager's contract; the motion was seconded and passed unanimously. The council then moved to direct the city manager to prepare the resolution regarding the interim city attorney and annual performance evaluation; that motion also passed 7–0. The mayor and council congratulated the named staff on the actions recorded on the floor.

The motions were recorded after executive session that had been convened under Texas Government Code sections cited on the record (including 551.071, 551.072 and 551.074). The motions recorded in open session reflect direction to staff and do not themselves publish the executive session discussion details; staff is expected to return with any required paperwork or resolutions for formal adoption.
