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;)
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.
(7) to consider a periodic personnel evaluation of a public officer, employee, staff member, or individual agent, if the named person requests a  closed hearing.
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.
MCL § 15.268, Closed sessions; permissible purposes, states as follows:
A public body may meet in a closed session only for the
following purposes: (d) To consider the purchase or lease of real property up
to the time an option to purchase or lease that real property is obtained.
The Michigan Attorney General (AG) has opined that
generally a public body may not hold a closed session for the purpose of
discussing the disposition of real property by sale or lease. Op Atty Gen, March 21, 1978, No. 5284. However, the AG has also opined that a public body may meet in
a closed session to direct its agents as to their limits in negotiating for
the purchase of real property.
Op Atty Gen, September 7, 1978, No. 5364. Since
there are real estate matters the District's broker needs guidance from the
Board, viz-a-viz limits to guide the District's agents in negotiations, a closed
session is in order.
