GaryI: CDA Mishandled Executive Session In Dumping Souza
The law is not wrong, it is just not being followed. As I see it at least 3 violatons occured in the executive session as the vote taken after they came back into regular session was nothing more than a pre determined decision made behind closed doors.
(1) They had to come to a consenses on what action to take - a decision
(2) They had to decide who would make the motion and second it - a decision
(3) They had to decide what the question would be for them to vote on - a decision.
While the minutes have yet to be published, the statement by the mayor that it was for “cause” is far from sufficient.
