Summary
The board read motions to recess into executive session for contract pursuits (non‑elected personnel) and, separately, to discuss the Roaden Bridge matter under attorney‑client privilege. Both items were scheduled as 15‑minute closed sessions.
At the start of the meeting the commission read and placed two related executive session motions on the record.
Motion 25212 asked the commission to recess the open meeting and move to a 15‑minute closed executive session "to discuss contract pursuits to the non elected personnel including county councilor commissioners." The motion was read by the clerk and entered into the minutes as a procedural item.
Separately, Motion 25214 was read to recess the open meeting into a 15‑minute closed executive session "to discuss Roaden Bridge for attorney client privileges." The clerk and commissioners discussed that the county had been able to secure attorneys for the session and that the bridge matter warranted attorney‑client confidentiality.
Both motions specified 15 minutes and cited the relevant exceptions for a closed session (contract/ personnel discussions and attorney‑client privilege). The transcript shows the motions were read and acknowledged; it does not include the closed‑session content (appropriately) or the closed‑session vote outcomes in the public portion of the transcript.
Commissioners later returned to open session; the public transcript does not record votes taken during the closed sessions. Follow‑up and any required public action will be recorded in the official minutes if and when appropriate.
