Long Branch City Council closes public meeting, adopts Resolution R51-25 to enter executive session

Presiding official (name not specified) opened the procedural business and called for a motion to close the public portion of the meeting. A motion and second were made (mover and seconder not specified in the transcript), and the council voted in favor: “All in favor? Aye.”

After that vote, the presiding official introduced Resolution R51-25 and read its text: “R51Dash25 be resolved that the city council will go into executive session to discuss the following. Attorney client privilege, administrator's update, administrator Shirley.” The council again voted in favor, and the meeting moved into executive session.

The presiding official also certified the meeting’s public notice earlier in the record, saying the meeting “has been published in the newspaper in accordance with the open public meeting act and posted as required.” The transcript identifies three council members as present during roll call (Mister Dangler, Mister Raffis, and Mister Veer) and two members as absent (Missus Wittis and Doctor Vogt). The transcript does not record the names of the motion-maker or the member who seconded the motion, nor does it record individual roll-call votes for the two procedural actions beyond the collective “Aye.”

The transcript provides no further public discussion of the matters listed for the executive session. Because the session topics include attorney–client privileged material, details of legal advice or deliberations are not part of the public record in the transcript provided.
