Executive Session
Now, miss porter, thank you, miss shields, let's call back to order the voting session of the Travis County Commissioners court.
we posted two interviews for 1:45, and mr. Nellis, we are a little bit before that time.
however, over lunch I learned that mr. Nellis and miss fleming would like to chat with us about the interviews they thought after the interviews would be better, I think before the interviews would be.
and so if you agree, we will announce item 28.
actually we may as well announce all the others too.
but 28 we'll take up first, and it's the interview, final candidates for the position of county executive planning and budget office.
two of them, a, john woodruff, and b, leslie browder and we listed those in this order for no particular reason.
did we tell them we would interview them in this order?
