Council authorizes mayor to negotiate employment agreement with Christophe Thomas Bauer
Summary
After an executive session, the Rowlett City Council voted 6-0 to authorize the mayor to negotiate and execute an employment agreement with Christophe Thomas Bauer; the motion was moved by Mister Bowers and seconded by Mister Bridal.
The Rowlett City Council returned to open session Wednesday and approved a motion authorizing the mayor to negotiate and execute an employment agreement with Christophe Thomas Bauer.
"I move, that we authorize the mayor to negotiate and execute an employment agreement with Christophe Bauer on the terms discussed in our executive," said Mister Bowers, who made the motion in open session. The motion was seconded by Mister Bridal. The chair called for a show of hands and announced, "And that carries unanimously by those members present, which is 6 to 0."
The motion followed a closed executive session during which the council deliberated personnel matters related to an employment agreement for Christophe Thomas Bauer under a statutory personnel exemption. The transcript indicates the executive session was held under the Texas Government Code personnel exemption (§551.074), with the motion returning that matter to open session for formal authorization.
The council’s action authorized the mayor to finalize and execute the agreement on the terms discussed in executive session; the transcript does not provide the agreement terms, compensation, or an effective date.
Procedural note: the motion to authorize negotiation and execution was made in open session after the executive session concluded. The council recorded the vote as unanimous among members present (6-0).
