Summary

Following a closed executive session on non-elected personnel, the board voted 3-0 to raise bookkeeper Laurie Moody's hourly pay by $3.00; the session included staff and lasted from 1:10 to 1:25 p.m.

After meeting in a closed executive session to discuss non-elected personnel, the Soldier Township Board returned to open session on Nov. 2 and approved a $3.00-per-hour pay increase for bookkeeper Laurie Moody.

Member Mike Mathes moved to increase Moody's pay by $3.00 per hour; Member Jerry Glasgow seconded and the motion carried 3-0. The minutes record the executive session began at 1:10 p.m. (not to exceed 20 minutes), was extended five minutes under attorney-client privilege, and concluded when the board reconvened in open session at 1:25 p.m.

Why it matters: the pay increase affects township payroll and was decided after an executive-session personnel discussion; the minutes do not disclose the specific personnel matters discussed, consistent with the executive-session exception.
