Selectboard enters executive session on legal matter, exits with no motions
Summary
Citing potential disadvantage from premature public disclosure, the Selectboard entered executive session at 7:54 p.m. to discuss a legal matter, invited several staff and counsel, exited at 8:41 p.m., and made no motions on the matter.
Chair Pat Haller moved the Selectboard into executive session at 7:54 p.m., saying premature public knowledge of the legal matter would place the town at a significant disadvantage. The board invited counsel and staff—specifically David Rue, Bill Fay, Maria Barden, and Town Administrator Tommy O'Connor—to attend. The motion to enter executive session passed 5-0. The board exited executive session at 8:41 p.m.; no motions were made following the closed session, and the meeting adjourned.
Because the board discussed a legal matter in executive session and explicitly cited disadvantage from premature public disclosure, no further details were offered at the open meeting. The minutes record the times of entry and exit and that no motions followed the executive session.
