Mt. Diablo Unified trustees adjourn to closed session to consider negotiations, personnel matters, superintendent evaluation and a liability claim
Summary
The Mt. Diablo Unified School District board adjourned into closed session to discuss labor negotiations, possible discipline or reassignment of an employee, the superintendent’s evaluation and a liability claim naming Kristen and Armando Diaz against the district.
An unidentified presiding officer called the Mt. Diablo Unified School District board meeting to order and, after completing roll call, announced the board would move into closed session to consider four items: labor negotiations, potential discipline or reassignment of an employee, the superintendent’s performance evaluation and a liability claim naming Kristen and Armando Diaz against the district.
The presiding officer summarized the closed-session agenda, saying the board "may discuss negotiations or provide direction to its representatives regarding represented employees," and identified the personnel-related items as involving discipline, dismissal or reassignment and a superintendent performance evaluation. The presiding officer also announced the liability claim and named the claimants and the agency involved. The presiding officer concluded the public portion by stating, "So we will adjourn to closed session."
The meeting transcript lists the closed-session references to state law that authorize these discussions. The presiding officer cited Government Code provisions commonly used for such items: labor negotiations (Gov. Code §54957.6), discipline or dismissal of a public employee (Gov. Code §54957 and related subsections), superintendent performance evaluation (Gov. Code §54957), and liability claims (Gov. Code §54956.95). The transcript identifies the claimants as Kristen and Armando Diaz and names Mt. Diablo Unified School District as the agency against which the claim is filed.
No public comment was made before the closed session, and no public votes or outcomes on the closed-session items are recorded in the provided transcript excerpt. The board recessed into closed session for deliberations on the announced items; the transcript does not record any substantive discussion or final actions on those matters in public session.
The board’s next public step, according to the excerpt, was to adjourn the open meeting and recess for the closed session. The transcript does not include any subsequent public disclosure about the results of the closed-session deliberations.
