Closed Meetings:
The law provides for closed meetings in a few specified circumstances. In order for a public body to hold a closed meeting,
two-thirds of its members must vote affirmatively in a roll call. Also, the purpose for which the closed meeting is being called
has to be stated in the meeting when the roll call is taken.
Closed meetings may be called without a two-thirds vote for the following reasons:
(1) considering the dismissal, suspension or disciplining of, or to hear complaints or charges brought against a public
officer, employee, staff member or individual when the person requests a closed hearing;
(2) considering the dismissal, suspension or disciplining of a student of a public school when the student or guardian
requests a closed hearing;
(3) strategy and negotiation sessions necessary in reaching a collective bargaining agreement when either party requests a
closed hearing; and
(4) partisan caucuses of the State Legislature.
(5) for a compliance conference the department of commerce conducts under MCL §333.16231, concerning an
investigation of certain licensed medical professionals.
(6) to conduct searches for a university president, until the board has narrowed the search to 5 candidates.
Other reasons a public body may hold a closed meeting are:
(1) to consider the purchase or lease of real property;
(2) to consult with its attorney about trial or settlement strategy in pending litigation, but only when an open meeting would
have detrimental financial effect on the public body’s position;
(3) to review the contents of an application for employment or appointment to a public office when the candidate requests
the application to remain confidential. However, all interviews by a public body for employment or appointment to a
public office have to be conducted in an open meeting; and
(4) to consider material exempt from discussion or disclosure by state or federal statute.
