Board to move resolution on closed‑session agenda authority to regular meeting after questions

President Schlemmer briefed the board on a packet resolution prepared by legal counsel to comply with changes in state law (referenced in the materials as "ARS 18 o 4"). He said the law requires that votes not be taken in executive session and that a resolution delegate authority for setting closed‑session agendas. "This resolution was drafted by our legal counsel... in order to meet compliance with the law," Schlemmer said.

Director Rudy Grom asked whether the draft explicitly covers open‑meeting agenda authority and flagged potential inconsistencies with the bylaws and the title used for the executive assistant in the draft. Schlemmer said the resolution targets closed‑session agenda-setting and recommended adopting it as a compliance item at the next regular meeting while taking the directors' questions as follow-ups to determine whether bylaw changes or clarifying language are needed.

The board agreed to move the resolution to the upcoming regular meeting for formal consideration and vote; Schlemmer asked staff or counsel to follow up on the questions raised about bylaw language and titles.
