Council votes to enter executive session on personnel matter

The council voted to enter an executive session under Title 1, subsection 6 to discuss a personnel matter after a motion was moved by Councilor McNevesch and seconded by Councilor Ali, the chair said.

The chair announced the motion and summarized the move: "So moved by Councilor McNevesch, seconded by Councilor Ali," and then called for a roll call vote. The roll call recorded affirmative responses from Councilors Grant, Bullock, Phillips, Sykes and McNevesch, and the chair stated the result in the affirmative. The transcript shows the motion was adopted. The chair also announced that Councilors Pelletier and Fornia were in attendance and that there were no public attendees for this portion of the meeting.

The chair told participants the executive session would begin at 05:08 and said, "For the record, we will conclude our business while in executive session. So we will not return to this public format. We'll go on to Google Meets to conduct our business." The council then moved to the closed format to continue the personnel discussion. The transcript does not record details of the personnel matter discussed in executive session.

Because personnel matters are confidential when discussed in executive session, no further substantive details were disclosed in the public record. The meeting minutes should record the motion, the mover and seconder, the roll call result, and the fact that the council continued in executive session on Google Meets.
