Council schedules special meeting for affordable-housing certification and moves into closed session on potential property acquisition
Summary
The council agreed to cancel the June 16 meeting, schedule a special meeting for June 23 to address affordable-housing actions, and entered closed session for a potential property acquisition (Resolution 25-238).
Council members agreed during the May 19 meeting to cancel the June 16 meeting and hold a special meeting on June 23 to accommodate planning-board steps and a council resolution related to affordable housing.
Township officials said the planning board must first discuss and schedule a public hearing; the council will then consider a resolution endorsing the affordable-housing action. Because the scheduling conflict with the primary election changed the calendar, council members approved moving the meeting date to ensure the planning and council processes can be completed in time.
Following the scheduling decision the council approved Resolution 25-238 to move into closed session on a matter described as a “potential property acquisition” and stated the council did not anticipate returning to open session that night. A motion to enter closed session was made and seconded, and the council voted in favor before adjourning to closed session.
The council did not disclose the property or any negotiation details in open session; the meeting record shows the council took the matter under closed session privilege. No votes or final actions about acquisition were announced in open session.
