Summary

At the April 27 work session the board approved an amended agenda (removing a consent engineering-contract award) and later voted to enter closed session under North Carolina statutes cited in the meeting.

The Beaufort Board of Commissioners approved an amended meeting agenda and later voted to move into closed session.

At about 4:00 p.m. the board removed a consent item — an engineering contract award — at the request of Commissioner Lipiglo and then approved the agenda as amended by voice vote. The amendment was proposed so staff could revisit the engineering contract before it returns to the board.

Later in the meeting the board voted to enter closed session citing North Carolina General Statutes 143-318.11(A)(3) and (6). The motion carried by voice vote. No substantive discussion or final action from the closed session was disclosed at the public meeting.

The approved agenda amendment and the vote to go into closed session were procedural actions recorded in open session; the items will follow the town’s usual process for returning amended consent items and any reportable closed-session outcomes to a future public meeting.
