Hull Municipal Light Board moves to executive session to hear proposed offshore wind power‑purchase agreement

The Hull Municipal Light Board convened at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 6, 2026 and immediately moved into an executive session to receive a presentation from the Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company on a proposed offshore wind power‑purchase agreement, Chair Mark Cone said. "This presentation will be an executive session," Cone told attendees.

Cone named Ryan Martin as the presenter for the "special project 2026" briefing on the offshore wind proposal and estimated the board would recess into executive session for about 20 minutes before returning to open session. A committee member asked whether the board could discuss the subject matter of the executive session after it reconvened (clarifying they were not asking for numbers), and Cone said the board would likely be able to say a few things if asked specific questions.

The board did not take any formal votes on the record during the portion of the meeting in the provided transcript; the public portion ended as the board moved into executive session. The meeting record notes the session was being recorded and that the regular meeting time for the board is typically 6:30 p.m., but that night’s meeting began at 7:30 p.m. The board indicated it would return to open session after the executive session.
