Livingston City Council narrows closed-session agenda, adjourns into closed session
Summary
On July 7, 2026, the Livingston City Council amended its closed-session agenda to remove one of two listed anticipated-litigation matters, then adjourned into a special closed session to discuss labor and litigation issues, the council said.
The Livingston City Council on July 7 amended its closed-session agenda to remove one of two listed anticipated-litigation matters and then adjourned into a special closed session, the council's presiding officer said.
Clerk-led roll call recorded Council member Roth as present; the transcript also records responses for Council member Uphaul and Mayor Pro Tem Sammer. Mayor Moran and Council member Wallace were absent.
The presiding officer announced three closed-session items: a conference with a labor negotiator under Government Code section 54956.6 with labor negotiator José Antonio Romero, City Manager, covering employee organizations including OE3 (the clerical bargaining unit) and the Livingston Police Officers Association; anticipated litigation under Government Code section 54956.9 (originally listed as two matters); and initiation of litigation under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(4) (one matter).
A council member recorded in the transcript as Council member Roth said staff recommended removing “1 of the unnamed matters from number 7,” reducing the listed anticipated-litigation items from two to one. The presiding officer confirmed the amendment.
After the amendment, the council adjourned to a special closed session to consider the listed labor and litigation matters and said it would provide a report after the closed session concluded.
