Recommended Action: Motion: TBD
Every six months the BOE reviews the closed session minutes and determines whether they need to remain closed or can be opened. Jennifer and Kim volunteered to review the closed session minutes for the board and will share their recommendations for Board action. This will eliminate the need for a closed session deliberation. They are generally left closed however the Board reviews them and makes a decision based on the merits of each set of minutes. The closed session minutes to be reviewed include:12/12/2019, 1/21/2020, 2/18/2020, 5/28/2020 |
