    • SPEAKER_06
    • 00:01:38
      Good morning.
    • 00:01:46
      Good morning.
    • SPEAKER_04
    • 00:01:54
      Could somebody speak off mute to see if my speakers are working?
    • SPEAKER_06
    • 00:02:00
      Good morning, Sena.
    • 00:02:02
      And I cannot hear you, so they are not.
    • SPEAKER_02
    • 00:02:23
      Looks like four of us are here.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:02:54
      Okay, it's 11 o'clock and all five of us are here, except we need Mr. Bob now.
    • SPEAKER_05
    • 00:03:02
      Sena was having trouble with her speakers.
    • 00:03:04
      Here she comes.
    • 00:03:06
      Mr. Bob is on the other link.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:03:09
      Ah, okay.
    • 00:03:11
      All right.
    • 00:03:11
      So I guess we call ourselves to order here, take roll here, then move to go into the closed session.
    • 00:03:18
      Is that the scenario?
    • 00:03:22
      Okay.
    • SPEAKER_05
    • 00:03:23
      Yes.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:03:24
      It's 11 o'clock.
    • 00:03:25
      I call this meeting of the Charlottesville City Council to order.
    • 00:03:28
      Ms.
    • 00:03:28
      Thomas, would you take our roll, please?
    • SPEAKER_05
    • 00:03:34
      Councilor McGill?
    • 00:03:34
      I think Sena's having trouble hearing this.
    • 00:03:46
      If you're calling my name, I don't know.
    • 00:03:48
      Yes.
    • 00:03:50
      Okay.
    • 00:03:50
      I'm here.
    • 00:03:51
      Very good.
    • 00:03:51
      I can hear you.
    • 00:03:52

    • 00:04:20
      Thank you.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:04:22
      Okay, so we need to have a motion to go into closed session.
    • 00:04:29
      In years past, that would be Heather Hill, but she's not here.
    • SPEAKER_00
    • 00:04:32
      I move that we go into closed session.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:04:37
      For purposes of discussing candidates for employment.
    • SPEAKER_05
    • 00:04:43
      Did you receive
    • SPEAKER_01
    • 00:04:46
      There's a close meeting motion that was sent.
    • 00:04:48
      I sent your close meeting motion about a half an hour ago.
    • 00:04:54
      There's some magic words that need to be read, and so if someone could read it with the magic words in the code references.
    • SPEAKER_00
    • 00:05:05
      I have the motion open so I can just read it.
    • 00:05:07
      I move that pursuant to section 2.2-3712 of the Virginia Code, I hereby move that the City Council close this open meeting and convene within a closed meeting as authorized by Virginia Code section 2.2-3711A1 and A8 for discussion consideration or interviews or one of more prospective candidates proposed by the Robert Bob Group.
    • 00:05:28
      to perform the duties of interim city manager and for consultation with legal counsel regarding implementation of the contract with the Robert Bob Group.
    • Lloyd Snook
    • 00:05:37
      Do we have a motion?
    • 00:05:38
      Do we have a second?
    • 00:05:40
      I second that motion.
