High Point council adopts agenda, votes to enter closed session on Item 20 (2696)
Summary
At a special High Point City Council meeting, members approved the agenda and voted to move into a closed session to consider Item 20 (2696); the actions were taken by verbal motion and voice vote, with named movers recorded in the meeting minutes.
Mayor Cyril Jefferson presided over a special High Point City Council meeting in which the council adopted its agenda and voted to enter a closed session to consider Item 20, 2696.
The council opened with an on-the-record roll call of attendees; Jefferson noted council members Andrew Williams, Holmes and Harmon were present. A motion to adopt the agenda was placed and, as announced on the record, Council member Holmes moved and Council member Andrew Williams seconded. The council voted by voice; the clerk announced “Aye,” and the mayor said, “The ayes have it and we have our agenda.”
The mayor then identified the meeting’s sole substantive item: a closed session listed as Item 20, 2696. A motion to enter that closed session was made; the transcript records Councilor Mahomes as making the motion and Council member Andrew Williams as seconding. The council again voted by voice, and the mayor announced, “The ayes have it and we’ll go into closed session.”
The meeting record contains no further detail on the subject matter of the closed session or any votes recorded by name. No formal public discussion of the closed-session topic took place on the record; the council moved to the closed session immediately after the voice vote.
The council recessed into closed session following the vote; the transcript does not record any outcomes from that session on the public record.
