Brookhaven City Council moves into executive session to continue budget work
Summary
The council requested and approved a motion to enter an executive session and later recessed until Aug. 13 at 6 p.m. to finish the budget. The transcript records no mover, seconder, or formal vote tally for the motion.
The Brookhaven City Council moved into an executive session after the chair asked for a motion to do so. The chair requested, "I need a motion to go into executive session," and the council proceeded; the transcript records a verbal motion and a subsequent confirmation that the body was in executive session.
After the closed session, the chair returned the meeting to open status and announced a recess. "We're back in regular meeting, but we're going to have recess until August 13 at 6PM to finish working on the budget," the chair said. The transcript does not record who made the motion or a roll-call tally; it records only that the body entered executive session and that the executive session took place.
The council indicated the "final total of the budget" will be completed in an upcoming executive session, signaling that remaining budget decisions are planned for closed deliberations rather than an immediate public vote. No ordinances, resolutions, or specific dollar amounts were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.
The meeting was recessed to Aug. 13 at 6:00 p.m. for the continuation of budget work; details on agenda items for that continuation and any public-notice or access provisions were not specified in the transcript.
