Summary
The council voted to enter a closed executive session under NJSA 10:4-12 to discuss pending affordable-housing litigation and potential acquisition and leasing of borough property; minutes will be released when matters are resolved.
At the April 22 meeting the Tenafly Mayor and Council voted to enter a closed executive session under the New Jersey Open Public Meetings Act, N.J.S.A. 10:4-12, to discuss pending affordable-housing litigation and the potential acquisition and leasing of borough property.
The resolution (R-25-288) stated that minutes would be taken and released to the public when the matters are resolved. A motion to go into closed session was moved and seconded; the meeting record shows the council unanimously answered "Aye" when asked if all were in favor.
The resolution read into the record specified three subjects for discussion: pending litigation involving affordable housing, potential real-property acquisitions and leasing of borough property. The council took the formal step to close the public meeting so that privileged legal and real-estate discussions could proceed in executive session consistent with the cited statute.
The meeting excerpt does not show what, if any, actions were taken in the closed session; the resolution states minutes will be released once the matters are resolved.
