[7:28] time I got here a little bit late my
apologize for that but that was it was
[7:31] awesome thank you there are very limited
items which for commissioners can go
[7:44] into closed sessions we have three of
those such items tonight and they deal
[7:50] with a county contract the acquisition
of real property and the disposal of
[7:56] real property the County Board of
Commissioners may not make any
[8:00] legislative action in a closed session
the purpose of this closed session is to
[8:05] confer with the county attorney Chris
Darren Barker who is in the other room
[8:10] the work room and the commissioners will
discuss what the options and
[8:15] alternatives are for these contracts and
the acquisition and disposal of real
[8:20] property and mr. darren barker will give
his opinion as to which course of action
[8:26] the county commissioners should take but
as i stated they may not take any action
[8:30] or discuss any other items than the
three that are listed here before the
[8:36] county takes any action these items will
be on the agenda in a future session and
[8:41] if a public hearing is required a public
hearing will be advertised in here but
[8:45] I'll be glad to answer any questions
about the parameters of a closed session
[8:51] but we've listened in the agenda the
three items that we're going to discuss
[8:55] and the relevant general statute which
allows that discussion to take place
[8:59] once the commissioners come back into
session from that closed session the
[9:05] only item of business that they will
take will be
[9:08] would turn the meeting but if there are
no questions and we must need a motion

session for these items I'll make that
[9:29] motion a favor
