Board votes 6-0 to enter closed session to discuss personnel matters
Summary
At a June 14, 2024 special board meeting the presiding official moved the board into a closed session under state law to discuss hiring, firing, disciplining or promoting particular employees. The motion passed 6-0 after a roll-call vote; there was no public comment.
At a June 14, 2024 special meeting, the presiding official asked the board to enter a closed session to discuss personnel matters under Missouri law and the board approved the request by a 6-0 vote.
"We have no public participation this morning, so if I could have a motion to go into closed session for RSMO 610.0213, hiring, firing, disciplining, or promoting of particular employees by governmental body when personal information about the employee is discussed," the presiding official said, calling for the motion. An unidentified member moved, "So moved," and another board member said, "I second that."
The clerk conducted a roll-call vote. The presiding official announced, "With a vote of 6 to 0, the ayes have it, and we will now, go into closed session." The record shows the meeting immediately recessed into a closed session to address the personnel issue.
No members of the public spoke during the meeting; the presiding official had announced there was no public participation before the motion. Beyond the motion and the vote to enter closed session, the public record for this meeting contains only roll-call and ceremonial items (a recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance) before the board recessed into the closed session. The board did not state any further public actions or next steps in the remaining on-record minutes.
