Sayreville Board of Education votes to enter executive session to discuss personnel, attorney‑client matters
Summary
On March 3 the Sayreville Board of Education unanimously approved a resolution to move into executive session to discuss personnel matters and items covered by attorney‑client privilege under the Open Public Meetings Act.
The presiding officer called the March 3 meeting of the Sayreville Board of Education to order and, after routine announcements and the pledge, asked for a motion to go into executive session.
"We will now take a motion to move into executive session, please," the presiding officer said. The motion was moved by Board Member Smith and seconded by Board Member Napolitano. A resolution invoking section 8 of the Open Public Meetings Act (Chapter 231, P.L. 1975) was read, saying the board would exclude the public to discuss personnel matters, including agenda items, and matters falling under attorney‑client privilege and that those matters will be made public when the need for non‑disclosure no longer exists.
Board members voted by roll call; the transcript records affirmative votes by Chitkowski, Fernandez, Hernandez, Maldonado, Napolitano, Pavone, Smith and Bloom. The presiding officer announced that the resolution took effect immediately and the board moved into executive session.
The resolution cited the Open Public Meetings Act as the legal basis for excluding the public. No further details of the personnel or attorney‑client matters were disclosed in the public portion of the meeting. The board indicated those matters would be released when nondisclosure is no longer required.
The board convened the executive session immediately after the vote; no additional public actions or votes were recorded in the transcript provided.
