The Montgomery City Council entered a closed executive session at 6:50 p.m. on Jan. 13 citing Texas Government Code section 551.071 (consultation with attorney concerning settlement and reimbursement of claims). The council returned to open session at 7:11 p.m.
In open session council moved to approve the settlement discussed in closed session (item 19a) and separately to approve a reimbursement with a waiver of liability (item 19b). Both motions were moved, seconded and carried as recorded in the meeting transcript; the motions were enacted in open session after attorney consultation.
The council did not read detailed settlement figures or identify claimants in the open transcript; motions recorded approval of the settlement and the reimbursement and noted the matters were discussed in executive session under the cited Government Code provision.
What’s next: The transcript does not list settlement amounts, parties, or further implementation details; staff or legal counsel typically follow up with necessary documents but none were read into the public record at this meeting.
