Mattawan council holds two closed sessions for annual department-head evaluations
Summary
The Village of Mattawan council met July 14, 2026, and twice moved into closed session to conduct annual personnel evaluations for department heads, including Superintendent Anthony and Chief Mansfield; the sessions began at 7:02 PM and 8:07 PM and returned to open session at 8:03 PM and 9:30 PM respectively.
The Village of Mattawan council convened a special meeting on July 14, 2026, and twice voted to move into closed session to conduct periodic personnel evaluations at the written request of the employee. A motion by Begeman, seconded by Daniel, put the meeting into closed session at 7:02 PM for the first evaluation listed on the agenda (Superintendent Anthony). The motion passed with all members present voting in favor.
After returning to open session at 8:03 PM, Superintendent Anthony exited the meeting and President Stuut recessed the council for five minutes; Chief Mansfield entered during that break. Later, at 8:07 PM, the council voted (motion by Daniel, seconded by Streeter) to enter closed session again for a periodic personnel evaluation pertaining to the second scheduled review. The council returned to open session at 9:30 PM and adjourned at 9:31 PM.
The minutes record the procedural motions and clock times for entry and return from closed session but do not disclose the substance or outcomes of the personnel evaluations, consistent with personnel-evaluation confidentiality. No public comments or communications were recorded during the meeting.
