Chair opens meeting; board approves agenda and votes to enter executive session
Summary
At the start of the meeting the chair called the session to order, confirmed media notification and a quorum, the board approved the agenda, and subsequently voted to go into executive session. Two members were noted as participating by phone.
The chair called the meeting to order, confirmed that media had been notified and declared a quorum, noting that several members were present in person and that Mr. Hughes and Mr. Jenkins were on the phone. The chair said, “So, I'm gonna call our meeting to order,” and then asked for a motion to approve the agenda.
The chair made the motion, saying, “I'll make a motion to approve our agenda.” A board member seconded the motion and members verbally indicated their support with “aye” responses; the chair announced that the motion passed.
The chair then said the board had no public business to address at that time and asked for a motion to move into executive session. The chair moved to enter executive session; a second was recorded and members again indicated support by voice. Despite one momentary overlap in vocal responses during the roll call on that motion, the chair proceeded to enter the executive session.
After the vote to enter executive session, the chair said she was requesting Miss Madden be allowed to speak; the transcript excerpt does not include Madden’s remarks or whether the request was acted on before the executive session began.
