>> we have just returned from executive session where we discussed the following items: number 32 involving security issues at certain county buildings. We did basically identify several issues. We'll have this back on the court's agenda in the immediate future, probably no action taken today other than to thank the county sheriff for her assistance. And to request that she keep working on these issues with us. And when a report is ready for consideration and action, we'll have it back on the court's agenda, and hopefully that is in the knot too distant future. Item number 42 involving the claim of otis daniels against Travis County. I move that we authorize the county attorney to hire appropriate experts.
