Summary

Trustees entered executive session under Oklahoma statutes to discuss appointing Carol Lance as Town Administrator and returned to open session later that night; the minutes do not explicitly record a final appointment vote or agreement approval.

The Slaughterville Board of Trustees entered executive session under 25 O.S. §307(B)(1) and §307(B)(2) to discuss the appointment of Carol Lance as Town Administrator (currently serving as interim). The motion to enter executive session was made by Mayor Steve Easom and seconded by Trustee Brad Luby; the motion passed unanimously.

The board returned to open session at 9:40 p.m. on a motion by Mayor Easom, seconded by Trustee Leah Grady. The minutes record the vote to return to open session (unanimous) but do not explicitly record a separate roll-call vote approving an employment agreement or the final appointment. The agenda item heading indicates the board intended to appoint and approve an employment agreement, but the minutes do not document the outcome of that action explicitly.
