Summary
The board approved a motion to enter closed session to "formulate plans related to the prevention of school violence" under N.C. Gen. Stat. §143-318.11(A)(8); the motion was moved and seconded and passed by voice vote.
At the end of the public presentation and Q&A, the chair asked for a motion to go into closed session "to formulate plans related to the prevention of school violence" under N.C. Gen. Stat. §143-318.11(A)(8). The motion to enter closed session was made and recorded as moved by board member Hegarty, seconded by board member Gordon, and approved by voice vote. "All those in favor of the motion, let it be known by the sound of aye," the chair said; the board responded and the session moved into closed session.
The motion text cited the statutory authority for closed sessions related to planning for public safety and prevented the presentation of operational specifics in open session. Committee members were asked to continue discussion in closed session; no additional public motions or votes were taken before the board entered closed session.
