Needham Board of Assessors approves minutes subject to technical corrections, votes to enter executive session
Summary
During the May 22 meeting the board approved several sets of open‑session minutes subject to technical corrections and voted to enter executive session to discuss property exemption/abatement applications and litigation strategy.
At the May 22 meeting the Town of Needham Board of Assessors approved open‑session minutes from March 27, April 3, April 10 and April 17 subject to technical corrections and moved into executive session to consider matters exempt from public inspection.
Chair John Bullion led the session and called for approval of minutes; a motion to approve the minutes with technical corrections was moved and seconded and the board voice‑voted the motion as "Aye." Later the board voted to enter executive session to discuss real‑estate and personal‑property exemptions/abatement applications and litigation strategy where public discussion would have a detrimental effect. The motion to enter executive session was moved and carried on recorded voice vote at the meeting.
The board did not discuss or disclose details of the items to be discussed in executive session in open session; the stated grounds were exemptions/abatement applications not open to public inspection and litigation‑strategy privileges.
