Council records motions to enter and exit executive session citing property-sale and bargaining statutes
Summary
The minutes record motions to enter executive session (citing 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(6) and 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(2)) and to exit; both motions carried with Commissioners Morris, Glenn, O’Malley and Mayor Goldsmith voting yes and Commissioner Arkebauer absent.
The March 10, 2025 minutes show the City Council recorded two procedural motions: a motion by Commissioner Morris (seconded by Commissioner O’Malley) to go into executive session at 7:38 P.M. to discuss the setting of a price for sale or lease of public property (5 ILCS 120/2(c)(6)) and collective bargaining/employee salary schedules (5 ILCS 120/2(c)(2)); and a later motion by Commissioner Glenn (seconded by Commissioner Morris) to exit the executive session at 8:19 P.M. Both motions carried with affirmative votes from Commissioners Morris, Glenn, O’Malley and Mayor Goldsmith; Commissioner Arkebauer was absent for the votes.
The minutes contain a minor timing inconsistency: the record first states the council went into executive session at 7:36 P.M. (SEG 004) and then records the motion to go into executive session at 7:38 P.M. (SEG 005). The minutes do not explain the two times; both are reported here exactly as recorded.
