Summary

The court entered executive session under Texas Government Code section 551.072 to deliberate negotiations on property at 1305 West Jefferson in Waxahachie and reconvened without taking action on the purchase.

The court read agenda item 3.5 concerning possible purchase of property at 1305 West Jefferson in Waxahachie and moved into executive session under Texas Government Code section 551.072 to deliberate the purchase, exchange, lease or value of real property where open deliberation would be detrimental to the county's negotiating position.

After the executive session the court reconvened and announced there would be no action taken on item 3.5 at this time. The judge declared the meeting adjourned. The transcript records the start of executive session at 2:30 p.m.; commissioners reconvened at about 3:31 p.m. and dismissed the meeting thereafter.

No details of negotiation positions or confidential deliberations were disclosed in open session; the court followed statutory procedure to move into closed session for real-property deliberations.
