The next item taken out of order.
A.  District Counsel
Mr. Garrison stated we have been involved in litigation and went to mediation a couple months ago, the board authorized up to a certain amount to remediate some of the issues and the offer was not accepted, and I believe the next step is a return to mediation. A pending issue for the board is our insurance policy caps the amount that our insurer will cover in legal fees at
$100,000 and we are on the doorstep of that. That means the board has a decision to make going forward. We can have a shade meeting where we can discuss matters involving active, pending litigation, we will have a court reporter in that session who takes notes, but it is sealed until the conclusion of the litigation. The board would authorize us to conduct a shade meeting just before or after our regular meeting so we can brief you on the ligation strategy and settlement discussions, and costs associated with that going forward.

Vice Chairman Herold moved to authorize staff to notice a shade session for March 27, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. or at the conclusion of the regular board meeting. Supervisor Booth seconded the motion. Motion passed 4 – 0.

Chairman Tabor stated you have both done a fantastic job.	I am disappointed at the representation we have received by outside counsel.
