VDRB affirms practice of closing deliberations after presentations; meeting adjourns
Summary
Board members reiterated a practice of accepting presentations and then conducting deliberations in private at the end of meetings; the board moved to adjourn following routine business. Members instructed staff to circulate bylaws and rules digitally to facilitate future discussions.
Board members described a recent practice in which the VDRB receives all presentations and then closes the doors to deliberate privately later in the meeting. One member summarized that policy by saying the board has "been waiting till the end of the meeting to do our deliberations in private," and the chair confirmed that approach.
Following other business, a motion to adjourn was made, seconded and the meeting concluded. Members asked that bylaws, planning commission and guidance documents be circulated digitally so staff and members can prepare for the village reorganization meeting and ongoing bylaw discussions.
