Newark City Council votes to enter executive session for HR update
Summary
At its meeting the council voted unanimously to go into executive session to receive an update from the city’s human resources director and legal counsel; attendees not part of administration were asked to briefly leave the chamber.
The Newark City Council voted 10-0 at the meeting to enter an executive session to receive an update from the city’s human resources director and the city attorney, a council member said during a motion to convene.
“I need to make a motion to go into executive session for an update with our HR director and legal counsel,” said a committee member (speaker 4), who moved the action; the motion was seconded and a roll-call vote followed with all present voting yes.
The move followed routine opening items including roll call and an invocation. After the vote, the council chair (speaker 1) asked everyone who was not part of the administration to briefly exit the chamber so the council could meet in private. “So we ask everybody that's not part of the administration to please exit for a little bit few minutes,” the chair said.
The council did not disclose details of the update in the public portion of the meeting. The council indicated the executive session would be short and that members of the public would be invited back when the public meeting resumed.
