Summary

After roughly an hour in closed session, the council reconvened and the city attorney reported no formal action was taken and that direction was given to staff to follow up.

The East Palo Alto City Council returned from closed session and the city attorney reported to the council that there had been no formal action during the closed session and that direction had been given to staff.

"No action taken. Direction given to staff," the city attorney stated during the reconvened open meeting. The council then proceeded to the next open-agenda items, including approval of the consent calendar. The city had estimated the closed session would last "within an hour or a little less," and the meeting resumed within that approximate time frame.

The city did not record any open-session vote or ordinance outcome tied to the closed-session item during this meeting; the report was limited to the attorney's summary statement.
