estimated that this meeting will take approximately thirty (30) minutes. The persons attending the meeting will

Since the law prohibits any other person from being present at the closed session, the commissioners, the O
County Administrator, the attorneys for the County and the court reporter will now remain in this meeting r-
room, and all other persons are required to leave the room. When the closed session is over, we will re-convene °U,
and re-open the public meeting. This public meeting is now closed.
2. At the beginning of the closed session. U)
I now call this closed session to order. For the record, this meeting is being held upon the request of the County U
Attorney Bob Shillinger who announced at a prior BOCC Meeting held on 7/17/19 that he needed advice in the
matter of Monroe County BOCC v. Magnolia 101, LLC, et al., Case No. 13-945-P. At that meeting, the Board gj
approved holding a closed session and public notice was given through public announcement of the meeting at
the 7/17/19 BOCC meeting and through publication of the 8/21/19 BOCC meeting agenda on the County's E-
web site.
For the record, and the benefit of the court reporter, each of us will state our name and position starting
with the commission.
(After all have identified themselves)—Thank you. 00

expenditures. We cannot take any decisive action at this meeting. We can only provide information and
