Council approves amendment to city manager's employment agreement after executive session

Following executive session under Texas Government Code Section 551.074 (personnel matters), the council returned to open session and voted to approve an amendment to the city manager's employment agreement, authorizing the mayor to sign and execute the amended contract. A councilmember identified in the record as Tim moved to approve the amendment; a second was recorded and the motion passed 6-0.

The motion was introduced immediately after the council reported the conclusion of its closed session. The mover corrected an initial misstatement during the motion to clarify the action pertained to the city manager's employment agreement. The council made no additional public comments about the substantive terms in open session.

By statute the discussion that led to the vote occurred in executive session and the public record contains only the open-session motion and vote. The council recorded the motion, the second and a unanimous 6-0 vote to approve and to authorize the mayor to execute the amended agreement.
