Select Board approves minutes, moves to nonpublic session and votes to seal nonpublic minutes
Summary
At its June 9 meeting the Sugar Hill Select Board approved the June 2 public and nonpublic minutes, adjourned, then moved into a nonpublic session citing RSA 91-A:3, II(c); roll call votes to enter and to seal the nonpublic minutes were recorded as unanimous.
The Sugar Hill Select Board approved the public and nonpublic meeting minutes of June 2, 2025 after a motion by Richard Bielefield and a second from Rusty Talbot; the minutes state the motion passed unanimously.
Later the board voted to adjourn at 5:35 p.m. and to enter a nonpublic session; minutes record a roll-call vote to enter nonpublic with Richard Bielefield, Chris Ellms and Rusty Talbot each voting "Yes." The statutory reason cited for the nonpublic session was RSA 91-A:3, II(c), the exemption for matters that, if discussed in public, would likely affect adversely the reputation of a person (including some applications for assistance or abatements based on inability to pay).
In nonpublic session the board voted to seal the nonpublic minutes; the motion to seal was made by Rusty Talbot, seconded by Chris Ellms, and the roll-call vote to seal is recorded as Yes from Bielefield, Ellms and Talbot. The board later left nonpublic session and adjourned at 5:55 p.m.; the record was signed by Town Administrator Jennifer Gaudette.
The minutes do not provide the substantive details of the nonpublic discussion; they state only the statutory basis for the closed session and that sealing of the minutes was approved.
