consultation with attorney and personnel matters exceptions.
and 28, interview final candidates for the executive manager position, transportation and natural resources.
personnel matters exception.
we will discuss 28 if time allows and we will talk about the process.
those interviews are scheduled to take place this afternoon.
we'll discuss these matters in executive session but will return to open court before taking any action.


pwe've returned from executive session where we discussed most of the items announced.
move we recess until 2:00 p.m.

>> second.

>> all in favor?
that passes by unanimous vote.


...26 is consider and take appropriate action regarding the potential purchase of real estate in central Austin, and in addition we need to discuss and take interviews in 28, interview final candidates for the executive manager position, transportation and natural resources and I was advised just before lunch we have two recommended by the court team to interview.
we will now convene in executive session and complete our work there and come back to open court to take any action, and in my view we're looking at probably a couple of hours.

>> so you will be taking 28 under the personnel correction; is that correct?

>> yes, sir, I sure will.
thank you for reminding me.
and the open court item under executive plus legal.
john, you would make a good personnel manager.


we've returned from executive session where we discussed three of the four items that we announced and we thought we would come back in open court and tack action because one is incredibly time sensitive.
25 is the matter involving the request for additional administrative leave with pay for the employee in the juvenile justice department.
I move that we add four days of leave with pay to the employee in slot number 435.
and that will get pay through today.

>> second.

>> discussion?
all in favor?
that passes by unanimous vote.
26, the matter involving the potential purchase of real estate in central Austin.
move that we authorize the broker to take actions as to the letter ever of intent consistent with our discussion in executive session today.

>> second.

>> discussion?
all in favor?
that passes by unanimous vote.
item 27 is the matter involving the claim filed by sergio flores against the precinct three constable.
we did give the county county attorney's office additional direction and hopefully they can act on that and bring this matter back for final action next Tuesday.
anything else on this action today?
then let's let that be sufficient.
we will reconvene in executive session to finish our discussion of the only item remaining, and that is to interview final candidates for the executive manager position, transportation and natural resources, and if you will wait one minute and let me talk about a scheduling matter……


we did announce prior to that short recess to take up the corporations that we have one item remaining for discussion.
that's to interview finalists for the executive manager transportation and natural resources position.
and that is what we will do in executive session now.
we will return to open court before taking any action.


exec side of session where we discussed the only remaining item for the last couple hours or so and that was a matter involving -- interviewing two finalists for the executive manager of transportation and natural resources, item no.
28.
I move that we delay our decision until next Tuesday.

>> second.

>> discussion?
all in favor?
that passes by unanimous vote.

>> second.

>> all in favor.
that carries unanimously also.
