Approve Executive Session
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
An exception to the Alaska Open Meetings law (AS 44.62.310(c)(1)) allows the City Council to meet in executive session on matters of which the immediate knowledge would clearly have an adverse effect upon the finances of the City. Discussion of strategy in regard to pending litigation matters in the open would be counter-productive to the potential negotiation process. Therefore, this agenda item qualifies for Council discussion in executive session.
