Mayor Cabrera reconvened the City Council in the Council Chamber from their Closed Session at 5:32 pm. City Attorney Steven Quintanilla announced the reason items are discussed in closed session is to avoid placing the City and its taxpayers at a disadvantage by disclosing negotiation terms before those matters are finalized. He explained that one of the items involves one potential case and that closed session is necessary to avoid disclosing the City’s litigation strategy. He stated that if litigation is initiated, the City must announce that action in open session.
