2026-09-09 - Special City Council Workshop

Summary

Built from the posted agenda and the video captions. Workshops have no minutes. The captions end about 1:14 into the 29:45 video, as the council went into executive session, so nothing of the closed session is public.

  • The chair opened the workshop at 5:15 PM in the council chambers and noted there was one item on the agenda.
  • A councilor moved to enter executive session under 1 M.R.S.A. section 405(6)(E) for consultation with legal counsel on settlement negotiations; it was seconded and a roll call followed, with each response audible in the captions being yes.
  • No further detail is public.
