The Springfield Economic Development Agency met Dec. 8 and recorded a conflict-of-interest disclosure from a board member before approving the consent calendar and adjourning into executive session.

Board member Lovell told the agency that their company, Masaka Properties, owns two parcels bordering the matter scheduled for discussion about the US Bank property and declared a potential conflict of interest. "My company, Masaka Properties, owns 2 bordering properties to that discussion area item," Lovell said, adding they would participate in discussion but "abstain for any votes or decisions."

The chair then moved to approve the consent calendar, saying, "I move to approve the consent calendar." The motion was seconded and the board voted by roll call. Each recorded member—Van Gordon, Weber, Moe, the chair (the transcript lists the chair’s name inconsistently as both Radley and Bradley), Vice Chair Blackwell, Buck, Stout and LaValle—voted "yes." The motion passed unanimously.

The chair noted there were no requests for public testimony and no reports from the chair. After the vote the board closed the open meeting and entered executive session.

The transcript does not list the specific items on the consent calendar; details of individual consent items were not specified in the public record provided.
