Summary

The court went into closed sessions to consult on contractor negotiations and a sick‑leave pool request. On returning to open session, commissioners approved up to 80 hours of sick leave for the individual whose request had been discussed in closed session.

The court met in two closed sessions: first (Texas Gov. Code §551.071) to consult with the county attorney about contract negotiations for a general contractor, and second (Texas Gov. Code §551.075) for a sick‑leave pool request. The court returned to open session and voted on the sick‑leave matter.

"Make a motion for 80 hours," a commissioner said in open session; the motion (mover and second recorded in open session) was adopted, and the court recorded the authorization as "up to 80 hours" for the individual's request.

No action was taken on the general‑contractor negotiations while in closed session; staff noted they would return with any required public action if needed.
