Chair moves council into executive session on personnel matter after approving agenda 5-0
Summary
The Norton City Council approved its agenda by a 5-0 roll-call vote and immediately voted to enter an executive session to discuss the employment, demotion or compensation of a public official; the council then began closed-session discussion.
The presiding officer asked that the roll be called and, after no additions were made to the agenda, a motion to approve the agenda "as presented" was made and seconded. A roll-call vote followed and the motion passed, 5-0.
The presiding officer then moved that the council "enter an executive session to consider the employment, demotion, or compensation of a public official." The motion was seconded; the presiding officer called the roll for the executive-session motion and recorded five affirmative votes, after which the council proceeded into closed-session discussion.
The meeting record as provided does not identify the public official under consideration or any substantive details about the personnel matter; the vote and the stated purpose for the executive session were the only actions recorded in the open portion of the meeting. No formal action on the personnel matter was taken in open session. The meeting then proceeded into the closed (executive) session.
