Mayor adjourns Marysville council to closed session over notice to vacate at 3318 Street
Summary
At an afternoon special session, the presiding officer adjourned the Marysville City Council to closed session to discuss pending litigation tied to a notice and order to vacate and repair an unsafe, substandard building at 3318 Street; public attendance was recorded as none.
The presiding officer of the Marysville City Council called a special afternoon session to order and moved the council into a closed session to discuss pending litigation tied to a notice and order to vacate and repair an unsafe, substandard building at 3318 Street in Marysville.
At the start of the public proceeding the mayor asked the clerk to call roll. Council member Rollins answered “Here,” and Council member Gilchrist answered “Here.” Council member Hudson was called but the public transcript does not record a verbal response. The presiding officer then noted there were no members of the public in the gallery or online and said the council would dispense with a notice to the public.
The presiding officer said, “we will adjourn to close session to deal with one item that is pending litigation,” identifying the subject as a notice and order to vacate and repair an unsafe and substandard building at 3318 Street in Marysville. The public record in this transcript contains inconsistent place references (the transcript lists both California and Virginia after Marysville); the council did not clarify jurisdiction or provide a full street name beyond the numeric address in the public remarks.
No motions, votes, or decisions on the underlying litigation were recorded in the public session before the council adjourned to closed session. The council’s next publicly recorded step in the transcript is the adjournment to the closed session; the outcome of the closed session and any subsequent actions or votes were not disclosed in the public portion of the transcript provided.
The special session therefore produced a public record of attendance and the stated reason for the closed session but did not include substantive public discussion, findings, or decisions about the property or the litigation. Further public updates or minutes following the closed session would be needed to learn whether the council took any formal action.
