Board approves hiring counsel to respond to notice of intent to sue and open-records request
Summary
The trustees approved hiring outside counsel to help respond to a notice of intent to sue and an open-records request submitted by Ronald Durban/Durbin; staff recommended the same larger firm and said the item was intended to be on the agenda at a prior meeting.
The Board approved retaining outside counsel to address a notice of intent to sue and a public-records request submitted by Ronald Durban (transcript spelling varies between Durban and Durbin). Staff said the item had not been placed on the previous meeting’s agenda due to an omission and that they had spoken with Mr. Durban previously about hiring counsel to assist with his request.
Staff again recommended Doerner/Dorner Saunders and attorney Nathan Cross to work through those issues. The board moved and approved hiring counsel for this item; the transcript records the motion, second, and a voice vote recorded by the clerk as unanimous. The record does not include legal pleadings or the public-records materials; staff said they would attempt to resolve the matter where possible while also engaging counsel.
