Suggested Action:
recommendation
I move that the Mayor and Council close the Council Meeting of April 6, 2020 to consult with staff to discuss confidential commercial or financial information related to a proposed development in the City.
This session will be closed under the authority of the Annotated Code of Maryland State Government General Provisions Article Section 3-305(b) (13) to comply with a specific constitutional, statutory, or judicially imposed requirement that prevents public disclosures about a particular proceeding or matter - specifically Maryland Code, § 4-335 of the General Provisions Article (protecting from disclosure confidential commercial information).
The reason for closing the meeting under this exception is to protect the City’s bargaining position and to maintain legally required confidentiality in regard to commercial and/or financial information.
I further move that the Mayor and Council close the Council Meeting of April 6, 2020 to discuss confidential personnel matters.
This session will be closed under the authority of the Annotated Code of Maryland State Government General Provisions Article Section 3-305(b)(1) to discuss a personnel matter that affects one or more specific employees.
The reason for closing the meeting under this exception is to maintain legally required confidentiality in regard to personnel matters.
