Committee enters executive session to discuss buying real estate with federal dollars
Summary
The committee voted to go into executive session to discuss terms of purchasing property with federal ARPA dollars, citing that public discussion could affect pricing; no votes were taken in executive session.
At the Aug. 4 meeting the committee voted by voice to go into executive session to discuss purchasing real estate with federal dollars and the risk that public discussion could affect the government's negotiating position.
The Chair read into the record that the executive session covered the terms of the proposed purchase and the specific rationale for closing the doors (to avoid affecting pricing). He also confirmed on return to open session that no votes were taken during the executive session, which the committee noted is not permitted in executive session.
