Summary

The board went into closed session twice on April 21 — first for FEMA arbitration with county counsel, then for an IT personnel matter at the employee’s request; the board announced no decisions were made during or after either closed session.

The Kossuth County Board of Supervisors voted to go into closed session twice during the April 21 meeting.

First, the board entered closed session with Attorney Adam Humes pursuant to Iowa Code 21.5(1)(c) to discuss FEMA arbitration. The motion to enter closed session passed on a roll-call vote with Supervisors Garman, Stecker, Haas and Chairman Nath recorded as voting yes. The transcript explicitly states that no decision was made during or after the closed session.

Later the board voted to go into a second closed session under Iowa Code 21.5(1)(i) at the request of an IT Department employee; that motion also passed by roll call with all present supervisors voting yes. The transcript again records that no decision was made during or after the closed session.

The board returned to open session after each closed meeting for further routine business and adjourned at 11:34 a.m.
