Summary

At the Nov. 4 meeting the committee voted to enter executive session citing "VSA 3 13," saying premature public knowledge could disadvantage the committee; recording was paused and the public portion ended.

During the Nov. 4 meeting of the Maple Run Unified School District ESP Negotiations Committee, members voted to move into executive session, citing a legal basis recorded in the transcript as "VSA 3 13." A committee member said the statutory reason was that "premature knowledge would place the board committee at substantial disadvantage."

According to the meeting record, a motion to enter executive session was made and seconded (the transcript records a motion by Joanna Jerome and a second by Carly Gunderson). The committee then took a voice vote and members present answered “aye.” The chair instructed that the recording be paused before the closed session began.

No substantive public discussion of the executive-session topic appears in the public portion of the record; the committee paused the public recording and proceeded to meet in closed session. The legal citation is recorded verbatim in the transcript as spoken; the committee did not read a fuller statutory citation or provide additional public detail about the subject matter of the closed session.
