The Chair opened the meeting and, at 5:30 p.m., moved that the council retire to executive session under Rhode Island General Laws sections 42-46-4 and 42-46-5(a)(1) to discuss personnel. "The time is now 05:30PM, and we are here for to to go into executive session," the Chair said before calling for a motion; the transcript records the motion being made and seconded but does not identify who moved or seconded it.
The Chair proceeded to a roll call vote. The transcript records responses as: "Councilor colonies? Aye."; "Councilor Durkin? Aye."; "Councilor McNally? Aye."; and "And councilor Menzies votes aye." The Chair then stated the motion "passes 4 0" with Councilor Torreale recorded as absent. The transcript preserves the spelling used for the first councilor as "Councilor colonies"; a precise corrected spelling for that name is not provided in the transcript.
