11:41But we're looking to move into closed session off the top,
11:45and I'll just read what the titles are here,
11:49or a title actually, which is,
11:52Claire Mulpey, secondary plan,
11:54Ontario Land Tribunal update.
11:57This is under section 2392ENF litigation,
12:01or potential litigation,
12:03including matters before administrative tribunals,
12:06affecting the municipality or local board,
12:08and advice that is subject to solicitor,
12:11client privilege, including communications necessary
12:14for that purpose.
12:16That's the only item that we're looking to consider.
12:19Before I call the vote on that,
12:21does anyone have a disclosure of pecuniary interest,
12:23or any general nature thereof on that item,
12:25before we move in to closed?
12:29Okay, seeing and hearing none.
12:30Would someone be willing to move,
12:32so we can get that allowance to move into closed?
12:35Councillor Goller will do that,
12:37or Rourke will second for us.
12:40Is there anything further on this item?
12:43Seeing and hearing none.
12:44Is anyone against moving into closed?
12:48And that's unanimous then.
12:50So for those watching or joining us,
12:53just give us some time as we move into a closed meeting
12:57to the public in regards to only that matter.
12:59And when done, I will return and give a high level summary
13:03of what has taken place,
13:05but we'll just be a little while on that,
13:07and then we'll continue with our open session later on.
