The purpose of this letter is to provide an opinion whether the city council may legally
discuss the above-referenced topics in executive session. Based upon the guidelines we have
previously supplied the city council, and subject to the discussion below, we conclude that all the
posted items fall within an exception to the Open Meetings Act, Government Code, Chapter 551.
Therefore,discussion on these matters may legally occur in closed session. In addition,this opinion
extends to any legal advice given to the council in executive session.
It is appropriate for the council to receive legal advice from our office about any of the above
listed lawsuits or claims.
Further, it is appropriate for the council to discuss in executive session the exchange, lease
or value of real property under Section 551.072 if the city council reasonably believes that
deliberation in open session would have a detrimental effect on the city's negotiations for that
property.
Additionally,it is appropriate for the council to deliberate in executive session a negotiated
contract for a prospective gift or donation under Section 551.073 if the city council reasonably
believes that deliberation in an open meeting would have a detrimental effect on the position of the
city.
Under Section 551.074,the city council may deliberate the appointment or employment of
a city officer, or employee. Under Attorney General opinions rendered in different contexts, the
Attorney General has concluded that personnel discussions under this section must pertain to an
