Board moves to closed session for superintendent evaluation under Minnesota statute 13D

The Mahtomedi board voted to move into a closed session to discuss a personnel matter related to the superintendent's evaluation under Minnesota Statute 13D.

A motion to move into closed session was made and seconded during the meeting; Director Dohman recorded the second. The chair announced the specific statutory authority for the closed session as Minnesota Statute 13D and called the voice vote; the motion carried on an "aye" vote. The meeting then recessed to the closed session; the board reconvened only to adjourn after the closed session.

The transcript records the invocation of Minn. Stat. 13D (personnel) as the reason for closing the public portion of the meeting. No substantive details of the evaluation were discussed in open session and no personnel decisions were recorded in the public portion of the minutes.
