Howell board meets in closed session to discuss attorney-client privileged correspondence
Summary
The Howell Public Schools Board adjourned into closed session under the Open Meetings Act §8(h) to discuss written correspondence exempt from disclosure under attorney‑client privilege; the motion to enter closed session passed 6-0 and the board reconvened at 4:02 p.m.
The Howell Public Schools Board voted unanimously (6-0) to enter closed session at its special meeting on Dec. 29, 2025, pursuant to Section 8(h) of the Open Meetings Act to discuss written correspondence that the board deemed exempt from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege.
The motion to move into closed session (#2025-165) was made by Ms. Marhofer and supported by Ms. Conn. The board adjourned into closed session at 2:31 p.m. and reconvened in public session at 4:02 p.m. No privileged details were disclosed in the public record; the minutes state only the statutory basis for the closed session and the times the session began and ended.
The board then proceeded to matters for discussion and subsequent votes in open session. Because the subject matter was attorney-client privileged written correspondence, the public meeting record does not include the content of the closed deliberations.
