Raymore council approves executive session to discuss real estate matters

Council Member Dougelweid moved and Council Member Holman seconded a motion at the Aug. 4 Raymore City Council work session to enter executive session "to discuss real estate matters." The motion was made during the closing of the work session; the mayor called for a roll call and multiple council members were recorded as voting "Yes."

The transcript records affirmative roll-call responses from Council Member Del Duarte, Council Member Burke and Council Member Cirk; the motion to enter executive session was announced as having been made and seconded and then carried by roll call. No substantive discussion of the real estate matters occurred in open session; the topic was listed as the reason for the closed executive session.

No further details about the real estate matters were discussed on the public record during the work session; any deliberations and actions in executive session will not be public unless and until the council chooses to report them in open session or take public action.
