The Town of Northborough Elderly and Disabled Taxation Fund Committee voted on March 31 to adjourn its open session and move into executive session under Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 30A, § 21(a)(7) and Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 59, § 60; members voted by roll call and did not return to open session.
Chair Lee Kiyomani Bong moved the committee into executive session near the end of the March 31 remote meeting, citing state law authorities. "I will now entertain a motion to move into executive session... Pursuant to Mass General Laws chapter 30A section 21 a purpose 7... in accordance with Mass General Laws chapter 59 section 60, requiring confidentiality," Bong said.
A member moved to adjourn the open session and enter executive session, and another member seconded. The committee voted by roll call and the chair announced, "We are adjourned for open." The committee did not return to open session at the conclusion of the executive session, per the chair's statement.
The motion and legal citations were read on the record in open session before the roll-call vote. The transcript records the statutory citations as stated by the chair; no substantive discussion of the executive-session subject matter appears in the public record.
