Board moves into closed session to consult on litigation, contracts and county administrator candidate
Summary
During the Feb. 19 meeting the Board of Supervisors entered a closed session citing Virginia Code exemptions to consult with legal counsel on litigation and contracts and to discuss candidates for County Administrator; the board reconvened, certified the closed meeting and adjourned.
On a motion by Supervisor Eurika Tyree, seconded by Supervisor Paul Stimpson, the Board entered a closed meeting citing Va. Code § 2.2-3711.A.8 (consultation with legal counsel regarding litigation and contracts) and § 2.2-3711.A.1 (discussion of prospective candidates for employment). The minutes identify the stated subject matter as current litigation and contracts and an update on consideration of a candidate for County Administrator.
After the closed session the Board reconvened in open meeting and adopted a certification under Va. Code § 2.2-3712 stating, to the best of each member’s knowledge, that only matters lawfully exempted from open meeting requirements were discussed and that no action was taken in closed session. The Board then adjourned and scheduled a joint budget workshop with the School Board for March 3, 2026 at 6:30 p.m. at Cumberland County Public Schools.
