Council calls for private meeting with city attorney

The Colorado Springs City Council is going to have a long, private chat with City Attorney Chris Melcher on Monday.

The council has scheduled a closed executive session after its Utilities Board orientation.

“The issues to be discussed involve City Attorney legal opinions, the receipt of general legal advice, and legal advice regarding advisory boards and commissions,” according to the agenda.

The agenda doesn’t provide any specifics.

But the “legal advice regarding advisory boards and commissions” could — again, could — involve the Memorial Health System task force.

Some council members have raised a ruckus over three task force members who will be reviewing proposals to lease the city-owned enterprise.

The three members have direct or indirect ties to Memorial, generating complaints about a conflict of interest.
