Council called the special meeting to order at 5:07 p.m. Three members of the public were present, but they said they had mistaken the meeting for something else and no one spoke during public participation. Council then voted to move the remainder of the meeting behind closed doors to consider employee relations, a land matter, and privileged legal advice. The official motion record says the motion carried, although the transcript cuts off before the chair declares the result.
