McDonough authorizes termination of Connecting Henry Family Connection partnership
Summary
Following an executive session, the council voted 6–1 (with one abstention recorded earlier) to authorize the mayor and city to terminate the city's partnership agreement with Connecting Henry Family Connection; the action was announced in open session with limited public detail because it followed executive session.
After convening in executive session for litigation, real estate and personnel matters, the McDonough City Council returned to open session and authorized the mayor and the city to terminate the city’s partnership agreement with Connecting Henry Family Connection. Councilmember Johnson moved the action; the motion passed with six votes in favor and one abstention.
Council did not discuss details in open session, citing the executive session exemptions under OCGA for litigation and personnel matters. The motion authorizes city leadership to take steps to sever the formal partnership and to carry out any procedural requirements to complete termination. Council members indicated that staff will provide appropriate documentation and next steps as allowed by state law and city policy.
Because the action followed executive session, the council gave limited public explanation in open session; staff and legal counsel will provide formal documentation at a future public meeting or in the public record as allowed.
