Morris County commissioners move into closed session to discuss pending litigation
Summary
The board voted to enter closed session under the Open Public Meetings Act to discuss a pending litigation matter; the motion was moved, seconded and approved with an 'Aye' vote before the public meeting was closed.
At the April 22 meeting the Morris County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution invoking the Open Public Meetings Act and voted to convene in closed session to discuss a pending litigation matter.
The clerk read the resolution describing executive‑session authority under the Open Public Meetings Act and the board moved, seconded and approved the motion to exclude the public. The transcript records the motion, a second and the call for votes with participants responding "Aye." No additional details about the litigation were disclosed in the public portion of the meeting; the resolution stated that matters discussed in executive session will be made public when confidentiality is no longer required.
The board returned to the public meeting only to adjourn later; no further public action on the litigation was recorded in the available transcript.
