City Council Special Meeting   6/16/2023

I think 17 and I have about 20 or 21.

Oh, okay.

Okay.

So I brought all my equipment here for our convo.

Morning, Madam Clerk, or afternoon, Madam Clerk.

You can count the minutes.

I haven't heard of him.

Yeah, the thingy thingy.

I was invited also, but I said I think I need to be doing my job.

I thought that was one toward the end of the month.

This month it's being canceled.

But then we canceled one meeting and they scheduled two more or three more in July.

Planning Commission has scheduled two meetings for July 5th and July 13th to try to finalize what they want to finalize with the zoning plan.

Okay.

And those are truly their work sessions.

But we should be there.

Otherwise we'd never make any progress.

Did we have ackee and saltfish?

Yep.

Did you have your real live Jamaican coffee?

is Harry Belafonte saying hockey and salt fish are nice.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter.

Gradually getting a voice back.

Girl, it doesn't matter.

We tried that before and we couldn't

You know you can't duplicate the flavor.

It's just like whenever I go to Miami my first stop after I check in is I had to have a cup of Cuban coffee.

Here come demand.

You've got to factor in the Juan factor.

Okay.

So there's not a Zoom link that people joined in on.

Okay.

But it would be BoxCast.

So we'll call ourselves to order at roughly 3.30 and roll call, I guess.

Councilor Payne?

Here.

Councilor Pinkston?

Here.

Mayor Snook?

Here.

Vice Mayor Wade?

Is there a motion to go into closed session?

Pursuant to Section 2.2-3712 of the Virginia Code, I hereby move that City Council close this open meeting and convene in a closed meeting as authorized by Virginia Code Section 2.2-3711A1 for discussion and consideration of prospective candidates for employment to the position of City Manager for the City of Charlottesville.

So anyway, we're now going to go into closed session.

Oh, do you know what that's in?

What type of band music did you like?

Oh, I like go-go music.

Okay, do we have to do anything to start up or just start?

I think we should be fine.

Is there a motion to that effect?

I move that this council certify by a recorded vote that to the best of each council member's knowledge only public business matters lawfully exempted from the open meeting requirements of the Virginia Freedom of Information Act and identified in the motion convening the closed meeting were heard, discussed, or considered in the closed session.

See everybody Tuesday.

Four o'clock.

Or at some event this weekend, right.

Okay, four o'clock, Tuesday.

Election day.

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, no.
