About those closed meetings in Davidson on Thursday...

Closed meetings, right or wrong, are not a rare occurrence in Davidson, but having two closed meetings at two different locations on the same night with one of them not being at town hall raised a few eyebrows.  With more than one reader asking about the closed meetings on Thursday evening, we wanted to check in with town hall to see what they were all about.

Not to worry, these meetings are definitely for a good reason.  Elected officials will be interviewing candidates for Town Manager Leamon Brice's replacement.  He is scheduled to retire later this year.  Included will be dinner with one candidate outside of town hall.

Anytime a quorum of elected officials is together talking about town business it needs to be announced as a "special meeting" if it's not on the regular schedule of meetings.  It's good to see the town following the rules on this sort of thing.
