Rumford board holds executive sessions on economic development and legal counsel
Summary
The board met in executive session under state law for economic development (1 M.R.S. §405(6)(C)) and for legal counsel (1 M.R.S. §405(6)(E)). The minutes record entry and exit times but contain no substantive public details.
The Rumford Board of Select Persons entered two executive sessions at its Oct. 3 meeting. The board first entered executive session under 1 M.R.S. §405(6)(C) for economic development at 5:40 p.m.; the minutes record exit at 6:19 p.m. The board later entered executive session under 1 M.R.S. §405(6)(E) for legal counsel at 6:20 p.m. and exited at 6:34 p.m. Both sessions were authorized by motions from Select Board Member Brennick and seconded by DiConzo.
The public minutes record only the statutory citations and the entry/exit times for each closed session; they do not include details of what was discussed or any decisions made in executive session. The board reconvened in open session following each exit and continued the agenda. Maine law limits public disclosure of executive-session content where exceptions apply; for any public record beyond the entry/exit notation, interested parties should file a public-records request with the town.
