San Isidro ISD agenda cites Texas Open Meetings Act before closed-session interviews
Summary
The board’s Jan. 13 agenda notifies the public that agenda items may be discussed in closed session under several exceptions in the Texas Government Code, including consultations with attorneys and personnel matters (Section 551.074).
Before listing closed-session personnel interviews, the agenda included a public-notice statement explaining that the board may move into closed session under the Texas Open Meetings Act (Government Code, Chapter 551) and that the presiding officer will identify statutory sections authorizing any closed session. The agenda lists exceptions the board might invoke, including Section 551.071 (consultations with the attorney), 551.072 (real property deliberations), 551.074 (personnel matters) and others.
The agenda further states that any item listed as a closed session agenda item may be moved to open session and that all votes, actions or decisions will be taken in open session. The transcript supplied contains the posted notice language and statutory citations but does not record any open-session vote tied to the listed closed-session items within the provided segments.
