CONSIDERATION OF MATTERS IN THE CALL FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING.
EXECUTIVE SESSION - Discussion of Personnel Matter.
ARNDT moved to convene into executive session under the authority of KIBC. 2.30.030
(F)(1)(g) for the discussion of a matter pertaining to personnel, KIBC 2.30.030(F)(1)(e)
matters which by law or ordinance are required to be confidential, and KIBC
2.30.030(F)(1)(c) matters which may tend to prejudice the character or reputation of any
person.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY: Griffin, Smiley,
Smith, Turner, Williams, Arndt, and Delgado.
ARNDT moved to invite the Assembly, Human Resources contractor Amy Gaskill, The
Borough Manager, the Borough Attorney, and relevant borough staff as necessary into
executive session.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY: Delgado, Griffin,
Smiley, Smith, Turner, Williams, and Arndt.
While executive sessions under KIBC 2.30.030(F)(1) (e) and (g) do not require notice
to the personnel involved, if the discussion might include discussion of matters tending
to defame or prejudice the reputation or character of any person, then KIBC
2.30.030(F)(1)(c) requires that the person be provided notice and offered the
opportunity to require that the discussion be in open session. They do not have a right
to be present in executive session unless invited. Notice of the potential executive
session has been provided to the person involved. Should the person request that the
discussion be in open session the Assembly could choose to proceed in open session
or could proceed in executive session under KIBC 2.30.030(F)(1) (e) and (g), but would
need to exercise care to refrain from discussion of matters which would tend to defame
or prejudice the character or reputation of the person.
Deputy Presiding Officer (DPO) Williams recessed the special meeting and convened
into executive session at 6:34 p.m.
