Board votes to enter closed session on personnel matters; returns and adjourns Committee of the Whole
Summary
The board voted to enter closed session under 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1) to consider personnel matters; the motion carried by roll call at 5:45 p.m. The board returned to open session at 6:26 p.m. and adjourned the Committee of the Whole at 6:28 p.m.
Member Dean Barnett moved and Member Ivory Myles seconded a motion "to go into Closed Session to consider the appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance, or dismissal of specific employees..." under 5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1). The motion carried on a roll call vote at 5:45 p.m.; recorded AYE votes were Barnett, Myles, Armstrong, Chalmers and Richardson. Frances Pollard and LaKeya Webb were recorded absent for that vote.
After the closed session the board returned to open session. Member Myles moved to return to open session at 6:26 p.m.; the minutes record that all members present voted AYE with no NAYs and the motion carried. Shortly thereafter, Member LaKeya Webb moved, seconded by all members, to adjourn the Committee of the Whole at 6:28 p.m.; the motion carried with all present voting AYE.
The minutes record the statutory basis cited for the closed session (5 ILCS 120/2(c)(1)) and record times for both entry into closed session (5:45 p.m.) and return to open session (6:26 p.m.). The minutes do not include details of discussions held in closed session, consistent with the statutory exemption.
