Blue Lake City Council approves agenda, votes to enter closed session on labor negotiations

The Blue Lake City Council convened and approved its meeting agenda following a motion recorded as "Motion by Scafani" and a second described on the record as "Seconded by Louis Lusso." The chair called for a voice vote and announced that the motion passed after councilors responded "aye."

Later in the meeting the council moved to agenda item 5 — a closed session described as a conference with labor negotiations. Napier moved to enter closed session and Bayless seconded; the chair again called for a voice vote and recorded that all present said "aye," sending the council to City Hall to conduct the closed session. The transcript does not specify individual vote tallies or the year and location of the meeting.

The chair opened the floor for public comment on the closed-session item before the council left for the closed session. The clerk noted that "Mister Kent Sawatzki submitted a letter, which is on the dias" and confirmed copies were available on the table, placing a written submission into the record.
