The Village of Maywood Board of Trustees voted to release a confidential workplace investigation report during its June 21 meeting.
Mayor Nathaniel George Booker and Trustees A. Sanchez, S. Reyes‑Plummer and M. Lightford voted in favor of immediately releasing the report prepared June 2, 2022 by Herschman Levison Hobfoll PLLC; Trustees M. Jones, A. Peppers and I. Brandon voted no. Trustee S. Reyes‑Plummer moved the release and Trustee A. Sanchez seconded the motion; the motion carried 4–3.
Attorney Herschman, the village's special legal counsel, provided a summary of the investigation to the board. The transcript records that the board heard the summary but does not provide verbatim excerpts of the report.
The vote followed a roll-call recorded in the minutes and occurred after other regular agenda items. The transcript does not state whether any specific removal of redactions or additional public disclosure steps were required or scheduled; the board motion, as recorded, directs immediate release of the existing report.
The board took no further formal actions reported in the transcript concerning implementation, follow-up investigations or personnel consequences tied directly to the report during the June 21 meeting. The meeting later recessed into closed session for personnel matters.
