Bayonne School District board closes public portion, moves into executive session over legal matter
Summary
At a special meeting, the Bayonne School District board closed the public portion and moved into an executive session citing a legal exemption. Roll call recorded one trustee absent and the remaining trustees present; no formal roll-call vote was recorded on the transcript.
The Bayonne School District board closed the public portion of a special meeting and moved into an executive session citing a legal exemption, President D announced.
President D told those in the room, "We're going to make this the fastest public portion ever," and said the board would clear the room before convening in executive session for the legal exemption. A roll call recorded Trustee Pchet as absent; Trustee Burke, Trustee Gesi Rodriguez, Trustee Gonzalez, Trustee Siola, Trustee Scofane, Trustee Young and Vice President Nagio were recorded as present.
A participant asked whether a formal motion was required to close the public portion and move into executive session. The transcript records the board proceeding after an exchange and the statement "All right. Done," but does not record a named mover, a second, or a roll-call vote on the action.
The board did not state the specific legal authority on the record beyond referring generally to the "legal exemption." The public portion was closed and attendees were asked to leave the room before the executive session began.
No additional matters or votes were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt. The board proceeded into the executive session, which the transcript indicates was convened for a legal exemption.
