Sussex County board votes to enter executive session on collective bargaining and litigation
Summary
The board adopted a resolution to enter executive session under NJSA 10:4-12 to discuss PBA collective bargaining, prosecutors' MOU and litigation matters related to 'SCUMA'; the resolution stated the board expects to take action after the closed session.
At the end of its Nov. 26 meeting, the Sussex County Board of County Commissioners voted to adopt an executive session resolution authorizing the board to meet in closed session under NJSA 10:4-12 to discuss matters exempt from public meetings.
The resolution specifically listed matters relating to collective bargaining agreements (including PBA negotiations and prosecutors' memoranda of understanding) and litigation/attorney–client privileged matters identified as "SCUMA." The resolution states that deliberations conducted in closed session may be disclosed to the public later if the board determines disclosure no longer harms the public interest and that the board expects to take formal action after returning from executive session.
A motion to enter executive session was made and seconded; the board voted in support and recessed into the closed session.
