xml 14659002 english Advisory Opinion 23-005 2023-11-14T18:00:00Z 2023-11-14T18:00:00Z A member of the public asked whether a city council violated the Open Meeting Law when it closed a meeting on the basis of attorney-client privilege to discuss a contract it had with a local school district and decide whether to break it. The Commissioner opined that the council violated the OML because a public body cannot close a meeting for attorney-client privilege purposes when there was no threatened or pending litigation. The Commissioner noted the threat that litigation may be a result of a public body deciding a matter one way or the other is not sufficient justification to close a meeting, and therefore the public's right to hear the discussion about the contract outweighed the need for absolute confidentiality.

The Commissioner determined that the board acted properly because the actions it took during the meeting were related to the special meeting notice. In addition, the board did not meet outside of the noticed special meeting or otherwise engage in serial meetings. Finally, because a quorum of the board attended and participated in the county planning commission meeting, relayed board business, deliberated, and received information as a group on issues relating to its official business, the quorum?s presence at the county planning commission meeting was a special meeting that the board should have noticed. 267093 Advisory Opinion 16-005 July 13, 2016, Westfield Township Board of Supervisors 16-005 Open Meeting Law Interpretation of meeting Serial meetings Open Meeting Law Open Meeting Law, Interpretation of meeting, Serial meetings Matthew Massman This is an opinion of the Commissioner of Administration issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, section 13.072 (2016).
