All their chip seal discussions continue to be illegal in exec session since there are no provisions in our bylaws for normal business to be conducted other than in open board mtgs.
Mermaid correctly references the Bylaws restrictions on the permissible content of Executive Sessions. There is an equally important stipulation a few lines further down:
"4. Final actions of the executive session shall be reported and affirmed when the meeting resumes or at the next regular meeting." [Emphasis added]
The debates in Executive Session are confidential, but the results (motions, decisions, resolutions, etc.) must be made public. Can anyone find examples of such reporting to date?
