Summary
At a Sept. 22 special meeting, the Ops County Commission voted to enter an executive session to discuss real property or economic development under 1 M.R.S.A. §405(6)(C); the commission recessed and later reconvened and adjourned with no public comments recorded.
Speaker 2, an unidentified commission member, called the Sept. 22 special meeting of the Ops County Commission to order and opened a public-comment period that drew no members of the public.
The commission then voted to enter a closed executive session “to convene in executive discussion of real property or economic development 1 MRSA 4 0 5 6 c,” with a voice vote recorded as “All those in favor? 3 in favor and none opposed.”
The motion to go into executive session was moved and seconded on the floor; the transcript does not identify which commissioners made or seconded the motion. The transcript records the statutory reference as read aloud by Speaker 1 and quoted in the meeting as “1 MRSA 4 0 5 6 c.”
Commissioners reconvened to open session after the closed meeting. Speaker 2 announced the commission had returned to regular session and asked whether any other business remained; none was raised. A motion to adjourn was made and seconded, and the meeting was adjourned after a voice vote recorded as unanimous in favor.
Speaker 1 said the commission’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Oct. 14 and noted a first joint budget commission meeting the same week, “so I believe the sixteenth.”
No formal decisions, votes on ordinances, or public actions were taken in open session during the portion of the meeting represented in the transcript.
