After executive session, council authorizes change order for Ranch Road extension project
Summary
Following an executive session on litigation and eminent domain matters, the council returned to open session and authorized staff to execute a change order and take necessary actions related to the Ranch Road extension project.
After convening in executive session under Texas Government Code provisions to consult with legal counsel on pending litigation and eminent-domain matters, the Forney City Council returned to open session May 5 and authorized staff to execute a change order related to the Ranch Road extension project.
During executive session the clerk listed litigation and eminent-domain topics including the Ranch Road Extension project and Lovers Lane eminent domain proceedings; several court-cost docket references were read into the record. After the meeting resumed, Councilmember Silgado moved "to authorize staff to execute a change order and take all necessary action related to the Ranch Road extension project," a motion the council seconded and approved by show of hands.
The transcript records the executive-session subjects but does not disclose deliberations from that closed session; the public action on return to open session was limited to authorizing staff to proceed with a change order rather than providing additional public details about scope or cost.
