Clerk announces possible closed session under statute 19.85 to discuss purchase negotiations
Summary
The clerk said Item 12(b) would allow the city council to adjourn into closed session under statute 19.85(1)(e) to deliberate or negotiate the purchase of public property tied to an intergovernmental agreement for a full consolidation of prior and "CMS" solutions; the transcript provides no further detail and the acronym "CMS" is not defined in the record.
The clerk announced that Item 12(b) would permit the city council to adjourn into closed session pursuant to statute 19.85 (the transcript phrases this as "of 1 of e") to deliberate or negotiate the purchasing of public property related to an intergovernmental agreement for a full consolidation of prior and "CMS" solutions. The clerk’s remark is limited to the agenda caption; the transcript segments provided do not include additional explanation, who would be involved, or any motion or vote authorizing the closed session.
The transcript records the statutory basis only as "statute 19.85" (the clerk’s wording referenced subsection language in a fragmented form). The record also refers to "CMS solutions," an acronym or program name not defined in the supplied segments; the transcript does not explain what "CMS" stands for or which entities are party to the proposed intergovernmental agreement.
