Trustees vote 7-0 to enter executive session under Hawaii statute
Summary
Trustees voted unanimously, with two members absent, to recess into executive session under Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 90-2.5; no members of the public had signed up to speak and the board said it would return to open session and resume livestreaming after the closed session.
Trustees voted 7-0 to move into an executive session "pursuant to Hawaii Revised Statutes Section 90-2.5," pausing the open meeting and indicating they would return to public session and continue livestreaming when the closed portion concluded.
A staff member, Lehua, told the trustees that no one had signed up to speak on the executive session items. An unidentified trustee moved that the board enter executive session; another trustee seconded the motion. During roll call, Trustee Ahuna was recorded as excused and Trustee Galutaria was noted as not present; Chair Kahele confirmed the motion passed with seven yes votes and the meeting moved into executive session.
The trustees said remaining items after the closed session would be announcements before adjournment. The meeting did not record any public comments on the items that prompted the executive session.
No further details about the subject matter of the executive session were disclosed in the public transcript. The board specified only that it was acting under the cited Hawaii statute before recessing to closed session and that the livestream would resume when the body returned to open session.
