At the close of its Nov. 17 meeting the Delaware County Board of Commissioners voted to adjourn into executive session under Resolution 25-974. The resolution specified three topics: dismissal and compensation of a public employer or public official, pending or imminent litigation, and collective bargaining.

The motion was made and seconded; commissioners Barb Lewis, Gary Merrill and Jeff Benton each voted Aye to send the meeting into executive session. The board recorded the vote and recessed the public meeting to discuss the listed matters in closed session. The transcript and public record do not include details of the items to be discussed in executive session, nor do they include outcomes from that closed session.

By rule, executive sessions restrict public disclosure of the matters discussed; any subsequent public action resulting from the closed session would be recorded in a future public meeting or in a separate public notice.
