Officials consider executive session for bond-bank briefing to protect competitive project details
Summary
Council and bond-bank representatives agreed the bond-bank could hold an executive session at the project's request so private, competitive site-selection details from the prospective company can be discussed with limited disclosure.
Council members and bond-bank staff discussed whether the bond-bank briefing with project representatives should be public or held in an executive session. Project representatives reportedly asked for limited disclosure because the site-selection process is competitive.
Dylan Little said the presentation materials indicated the company preferred confidentiality; council members acknowledged that an executive session would be permissible for the same reasons that other departments may use executive sessions. Staff confirmed the bond bank can meet in executive session and suggested the briefing be limited to bond-bank members and required staff.
The parties agreed to find an available date for a meeting with project lead Mike Perlberg and Dwayne Bischoff and to advise council members how many would need to attend so proper notice and any required advertising could be completed.
