Commissioner Thomas moved the City Commission into executive session on Friday, May 1, citing KRSC 1.810, to discuss the sale of real property and the potential siting of a business near I 69 Barrett Boulevard Highway 60 East.
“I move the commission go in executive session pursuant to KRSC 1.810, paragraph 1 b, deliberations on sale of real property in area of I 69 Barrett Boulevard Highway 60 East and paragraph g for discussion regarding the potential sighting of a business,” Commissioner Thomas said.
A second was recorded on the record, but the transcript does not identify who seconded the motion. The chair called for a voice vote; members responded “aye,” and the motion carried. The public transcript ends as the commission moved into executive session, and no public deliberations from that closed session appear in the record.
At roll call earlier in the brief public portion, Commissioner Thomas and Commissioner Pruitt were noted as present; Commissioner Hargis and Mayor Staton were also recorded as present. A call for “Mister Witt” in the roll call elicited no recorded response in the public transcript.
The commission invoked KRSC 1.810 (paragraphs 1(b) and (g)), the statutory basis cited on the record for closing the meeting to the public to deliberate a real property transaction and to discuss the potential siting of a business. The transcript does not record any further details about the property, proposed buyer or developer, potential terms, or any timeline for returning to public session.
The meeting proceeded into executive session immediately following the vote; no subsequent public actions were recorded in the provided transcript.
