The Harrison City Council announced an executive session under Idaho law to consult with legal counsel about litigation. The council cited Idaho Code 74-206(1)(f): "To communicate with legal counsel for the public agency to discuss the legal ramifications of and legal options for pending litigation, or controversies not yet being litigated but imminently likely to be litigated."
