Southern Shores council seeks motion for closed session under GS 143-318
Summary
At a Jan. 17 special meeting, the chair of the Town of Southern Shores Council asked members for a motion to enter a closed session citing GS 143-318; the transcript records the request but no motion or vote was recorded.
The chair of the Town of Southern Shores Council opened a special meeting on Jan. 17, 2025, and asked members for a motion to enter a closed session under GS 143-318.
The request came after the chair told attendees, “We have really just, a single business item,” and directly asked for a motion: “I would like to get a pure motion to go into closed session pursuant to g s 1 43 dash 3 1 8.” The transcript ends after the chair’s request and does not record any motion, second, or vote.
The chair cited GS 143-318 as the statutory basis for entering closed session. The transcript does not specify the jurisdiction associated with that citation or the subject the council planned to discuss in closed session.
No formal action, vote tally, or further discussion on the floor appears in the provided transcript. The next procedural step would normally be a member moving the motion and a second or a roll-call vote; none of those steps are recorded here.
