City Council May Hold Closed Session or Consult Attorney on August 20

Closed Session Provision

The agenda includes a standard provision that permits the city council to convene a closed or executive session during its August 20 meeting. This action would only occur if council members determine it is necessary while in session.

Legal Authority

Any closed session or consultation with the city attorney must comply with the Texas Open Meetings Act, specifically Texas Government Code 551.001 et seq. The provision allows discussions on any subjects and for any purposes authorized by the statute.

Meeting Logistics

Should a closed session be required, it will take place at the date, hour, and location specified in the public notice. The council will arrange the timing to fit conveniently within the scheduled meeting framework.
