Summary
Mayor Hugh “Bubba” Hodge convened a 22-minute City of Darien work session on July 14, 2025, where councilmembers reviewed the agenda for the July 15 regular meeting; the session produced no motions, votes or formal actions.
Mayor Hugh “Bubba” Hodge called the City of Darien work session to order at 5:30 p.m. on July 14, 2025, in the David Bluestein Meeting Room at City Hall. Present were Mayor Pro-tem Griffin Lotson and Councilmembers William Collins, Russ Quarterman and Jeff Ragsdale; City Clerk Priscilla Taylor, City Manager Holden Osburn and City Attorney Sam Oliver were listed as staff present.
Councilmembers and staff reviewed the agenda for the July 15, 2025, Regular Council Meeting but took no formal action. The minutes record that the agenda "was discussed" and explicitly state, "No action was taken," indicating the work session was for preview and discussion rather than decision-making.
The record shows there were no public hearings and no visitor presentations during the work session. An "EXECUTIVE SESSION" heading appears in the minutes with no entries following it, which the minutes do not describe further. After the agenda discussion, Mayor Hodge adjourned the meeting at 5:52 p.m., and City Clerk Priscilla Taylor attested to the minutes.
Beyond the attendance and timing details, the minutes do not list motions, votes, or assignments for follow-up. The council is scheduled to hold its Regular Council Meeting on July 15, 2025, where any items previewed at the work session could appear on the formal agenda.
