Agenda, item III.1

The council is scheduled to meet privately with its legal counsel to talk about one possible lawsuit the city might file. The agenda calls this "initiation of litigation: one potential case."

The item cites a state law, Government Code Section 54956.9(d)(4), that allows a city council to discuss anticipated litigation in closed session rather than in public.

The agenda lists no other business. After roll call, the council goes into closed session and then adjourns. No public votes or decisions are scheduled.

Routine items

No other business on the agenda

Agenda

The rest of the agenda is procedural: calling the meeting to order, taking roll call and adjourning.

The meeting is a special closed session meeting, not a regular 6 p.m. council meeting, so no regular agenda items are listed.
