Members of the Buckingham County Board of Supervisors held a special called meeting Friday that, according to documentation from the county, include items related to consultation with legal counsel.

No action was taken as a result of the meeting, Buckingham County Administrative Assistant Jennifer Lann said Friday.

The special called meeting was held at 10:30 a.m. at the Administrative Building located at 13360 W. James Anderson Highway.

The items were under executive closed matters and no additional information was available, County Administrator Rebecca Carter said.

The items discussed during the meeting, according to county documentation, first included “discussion, consideration, or interviews of prospective candidates for employment; assignment, appointment, promotion, performance, demotion, salaries, disciplining, or resignation of specific public officers, appointees, or employees of any public body; and evaluation of performance of departments or schools of public institutions of higher education where such evaluation will necessarily involve discussion of the performance of specific individuals,” records cite. “Any teacher shall be permitted to be present during a closed meeting in which there is a discussion or consideration of a disciplinary matter that involves the teacher and some student and the student involved in the matter is present, provided the teacher makes a written request to be present to the presiding officer of the appropriate board. Nothing in this subdivision, however, shall be construed to authorize a closed meeting by a local governing body or an elected school board to discuss compensation matters that affect the membership of such body or board collectively.”

The second item, according to county documentation, related to consultation with legal counsel and briefing by staff members “pertaining to actual or probable litigation, where such consultation or briefing in open meeting would adversely affect the negotiating or litigating posture of the public body. For the purposes of this subdivision, ‘probable litigation’ means litigation that has been specifically threatened or on which the public body or its legal counsel has a reasonable basis to believe will be commenced by or against a known party.”

The third item related to a prospective business or industry, or the expansion of an existing business or industry “where no previous announcement has been made of the business’ or industry’s interest in locating or expanding its facilities in the community.”
