Committee votes to enter executive session to discuss GMB EU Unit A step 3 grievance
Summary
The committee voted to adjourn to executive session under "chapter 30, section 21" to consider a Step 3 grievance filed under the GMB EU Unit A collective bargaining agreement; a roll call recorded unanimous assent to enter closed session.
The Greater New Bedford Regional Vocational Technical School Committee voted to adjourn to executive session to discuss a Step 3 grievance filed by the GMB EU, Unit A bargaining unit, citing Chapter 30, Section 21 as the authority for a closed session.
The chair said the committee would move into executive session “to meet for the purpose of discussing a step 3 grievance filed by the GMB EU, unit a, in accordance with the grievance procedure in the GMBEU unit a collective bargaining agreement,” and that an open meeting would have a “detrimental effect to the bargaining position of the committee.” The chair called for a roll call vote to enter executive session.
Committee members recorded the following roll-call responses: Miss Pimentel — yes; Miss Bancorp — yes; Mr. Shea — yes; Mr. Rivera — yes; Dr. Marlin — yes; Mr. Kitchen — yes; and Mr. Olivero — yes. No mover or seconder was announced on the record. The chair said members would return to open session after the closed meeting.
The transcript does not record any discussion or decisions on the grievance in open session; the vote on the motion was solely to convene executive session under the cited statutory authority.
