The Franklin County Board of Supervisors voted to go into closed session under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act to discuss a personnel appointment to the Boone District.
A board member moved that the "Franklin County Board of Supervisors moves to enter into a closed meeting in accordance with 2.2-3711(a)(1) of the Code of Virginia as amended personnel discussion of appointment to the Franklin County Board of Supervisors Boone District," a statement recorded on the public transcript. The motion was seconded and approved by roll call.
After the closed session the board returned to open session and a supervisor read a certification stating, in part, that "only public business matters lawfully exempted from open meeting requirements under the Virginia Freedom of Information Act were heard, discussed, or considered in the closed session to which the certification applies." The board voted to adopt that certification on the record.
The closed session was limited to discussion of a personnel appointment; no other legal authority or different exception was invoked on the public record.
