Elkton council holds closed session on personnel, returns and certifies compliance with Virginia open‑meeting law
Summary
Council entered a closed session Feb. 3 under Virginia Code §2.2‑3711.A.1 to discuss personnel matters and later certified by roll call pursuant to §2.2‑3712(D) that only lawfully exempted matters were discussed; both motions passed 5‑0.
On Feb. 3 the Town of Elkton Council Committees moved into a Closed Session to discuss personnel matters. Council member Virginia Fulginiti moved to convene Closed Session under Virginia Code §2.2‑3711.A.1 (prospective candidates for employment; assignment, appointment, promotion, performance, salaries, disciplining, or resignation of specific public officers or employees); Council member Aaron Napotnik seconded the motion and it carried 5‑0.
After the closed session, Council reconvened in open session and voted to certify, by motion of Council member Virginia Fulginiti with a second from Aaron Napotnik, that only matters lawfully exempted under Virginia law were heard, discussed, or considered during the closed meeting. The roll‑call certification was recorded as an affirmative vote by all present (5‑0), and the meeting was then adjourned.
The minutes record the statutory citations and the motions but do not disclose substantive personnel details discussed in closed session, consistent with the exemption cited in state law.
