Summary

At the end of its March 12 meeting the board unanimously voted to enter a closed session under the Open Public Meetings Act to discuss pending litigation identified in the resolution as 'te holdings litigation'; the board said it will make the closed-session discussion public when appropriate.

The Planning Board voted on March 12 to go into a closed session to discuss pending litigation the board described in its resolution as "te holdings litigation." The motion cited the Open Public Meetings Act and stated the board would make the closed‑session discussion public when its disclosure would no longer adversely affect the borough’s interest.

The resolution specifically referenced the statutory authority for closed sessions under the open meetings law and was read into the record before the chair called for a motion and the board moved to adjourn into closed session.

No substantive discussion of the litigation took place in public; the board indicated it will release details from the closed session at a later date if doing so will not prejudice the borough’s interest.
