Westminster Council Holds Executive Session on Contracts, Property and a Cyber‑Related Investigation; No Public Action Taken
Summary
The Council entered executive session Dec. 12 to discuss contractual negotiations, a proposed sale/purchase of property and to receive attorney advice about a cyber‑related law‑enforcement investigation; the executive session adjourned at 5:18 p.m. and the minutes state no action was taken.
The Westminster City Council voted unanimously to enter an executive session at its Dec. 12 special meeting to discuss "negotiations incident to proposed contractual arrangements and proposed sale or purchase of property," and to receive legal advice on pending, threatened, or potential claims. The motion as recorded cites S.C. Code Ann. 30‑4‑70 and specifically includes receiving legal advice "related to a contractual matter regarding an ongoing law enforcement investigation as a result of a cyber incident."
The minutes record that the executive session was adjourned at 5:18 p.m. and state, "No action was taken." Because the discussion occurred in a closed session, the minutes do not provide additional details about the contracts, property matters, or the law‑enforcement cyber investigation; the council did not record any public vote or policy decision tied to those subjects in the open minutes.
