Seekonk Select Board votes to enter executive session on personnel, litigation and contract negotiations
Summary
The Select Board voted to adjourn into executive session to discuss employee medical/fitness issues, litigation strategy in a case involving Seekonk Cable Access Incorporated, and contract negotiations; the board stated the matters would be detrimental to discuss in open session.
At the close of its June 26 meeting the Seekonk Select Board voted to enter executive session and not to reconvene in open session. The motion cited the statutory bases for closed deliberations under the Massachusetts General Laws to consider the physical condition of an employee, litigation strategy regarding Town of Seekonk v. Seekonk Cable Access Incorporated, and negotiations with the administrative assistant/master agreement matters.
The chair said discussing those topics in open session would have a detrimental effect on the town’s litigation or negotiation positions; the motion to enter executive session passed unanimously and the board adjourned into closed session.
What’s next: the board will meet in executive session to handle the listed personnel, litigation and contract matters; no further details were disclosed in open session.
