The committee voted to enter executive session pursuant to New York Public Officers Law §105 to discuss proposed legal action on the declaratory judgment concerning Local Law A of 2026 (term limits) and its transmittal to the Board of Elections. The motion passed on a majority vote and the chair asked all non‑legislators to exit before the closed session; the transcript records the committee's authorization for certain clerks to attend the executive session as permitted by statute.
A county attorney present stated the county's position of being adverse in the matter and therefore declined to participate in the executive session. After the closed‑door portion of the meeting, the committee reconvened and adjourned at 3:15 p.m.
