Summary
The Board entered closed session at 7:03 p.m. citing state statute, returned to open session at 7:22 p.m., approved minutes and adjourned at 7:35 p.m.; the next meeting is scheduled for July 28, 2026.
Alderwoman Proctor made a motion at 7:03 p.m. to enter closed session pursuant to the North Carolina statute governing closed sessions; Alderwoman Mull seconded and the motion carried. The Board returned to open session at 7:22 p.m. after a subsequent motion. The meeting adjourned at 7:35 p.m.
The Board approved the June 25, 2026 minutes earlier in the meeting by unanimous vote. The next regularly scheduled meeting is set for July 28, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. at 85 Summer Street, Canton, NC. The meeting record cites the closed-session authority; the transcript citation was N.C.G.S. 143-318.00 (a)(3)(4)(5), which appears to be a transcriptional variant of the statute commonly cited for closed sessions (N.C.G.S. §143-318.11).
