Elkton Council moves into closed session on personnel and land acquisition, then certifies the meeting
Summary
Council voted to enter closed session under Virginia Code for personnel and real-property bargaining matters and later certified that only the exempted topics were discussed; both motions were approved 4-0 in the minutes excerpt.
Council member Virginia Fulginiti moved that the council go into Closed Session under Virginia Code § 2.2-3711.A.1 for personnel and § 2.2-3711.A.3 for discussion of acquisition/disposition of real property where open discussion could affect bargaining position; the motion carried 4-0. After returning to open session, Council member Jan Hensley moved and Council member Rachel Michael seconded a certification under § 2.2-3712(D) that only exempted matters were discussed; the roll-call certification was recorded 4-0.
The minutes record the motion language and the certification votes but do not disclose the content of the closed session discussion, consistent with the closed-session exemption. The record therefore shows only that the council used closed-session authority for personnel and real-property matters and later certified compliance with the statute.
