The clerk read a motion to convene a closed session under Virginia Code sections cited to discuss appointments listed on the agenda, the disposition of publicly held property in Colosseum Central and Phoebus where open discussion would harm the city's bargaining position, and to consult with counsel on legal matters related to bed-and-breakfasts and short-term rentals.
