The Borough Council of the Borough of Caldwell held a special business meeting on Jan. 29, 2026, at 7:01 p.m. at Saint Aloysius Church Gymnasium and moved into executive session to discuss personnel matters.
Councilman Brown moved to close the public meeting and go into executive session to discuss "Personnel Matters," citing N.J.S.A. 10:12 and 13 and related provisions; Councilman Jurgensen seconded the motion, which carried on a voice vote with all members present voting in the affirmative. The council entered executive session at 7:03 p.m.
The session was described in the resolution as indefinite in duration and subject to disclosure "upon termination of litigation or contractual matter, upon resolution of the personnel matter with consent of said person or persons and as provided by N.J.S.A. 4-12 but in no case later than two (2) years from this date," according to the meeting record.
No members of the public were present to offer comment during the public comment period, which the council opened before the executive session. The clerk reviewed routine agenda items (introductions of ordinances, second readings, resolutions and the consent agenda) and stated that consent items would be acted on by a single motion unless removed for separate action; nothing was removed for public discussion in the transcripted record.
When the closed session concluded, Councilman Brown moved to close the executive session and reopen the meeting to the public; Council President Buechner seconded. The motion passed on a voice vote with all members voting in the affirmative and the public meeting was reopened at 8:26 p.m. With no additional business, Councilman Daniolowicz moved to adjourn, seconded by Councilwoman Buechner; the motion carried and the meeting adjourned at 8:26 p.m.
