Are completed motions during Executive Session placed into the minutes

[Frank]

If a motion is made and acted upon (adopted or failed) during executive session, is that motion and the result recorded in the minutes for the entire BOD meeting?

Example: A Director asked to go into executive session and all members agreed. During the Executive Session, the Director submited his resignation. A motion and second was made to accept the resignation, discussion occured, and the motion carried when a vote was taken.

So, should the BOD meeting minutes reflect the motion and result that occured during Executive Session? If so, could you give me an example of how that would look in the minutes?

No. Executive session minutes are separately kept: "The minutes, or record of proceedings, of an executive session must be read and acted upon only in executive session, unless that which would be reported in the minutes-that is, the action taken, as distinct from that which was said in debate-was not secret, or secrecy has been lifted by the assembly." RONR (11th ed.), p. 96

Then at the next regular BOD meeting, the BOD needs to go into Executive Session to approve the minutes of the Executive Session held during the previous meeting?

Right " When the minutes of an executive session must be considered for approval at an executive session held solely for that purpose, the brief minutes of the latter meeting are, or are assumed to be, approved by that meeting." RONR (11th ed.), p. 96

Exec. Session - if a motion and second are made regarding a personnel issue and no vote is taken until back in open session, what is recorded in the open session minutes?

In the open session minutes, all that would be recorded is that the board went into executive session, returned from executive session, and then voted on whatever it was (in open session).

The executive session would contain very little, since no action was taken there.

With no business motions voted on in ExecSess, I would say that the minutes of the session would contain just one sentence: "At the conclusion of the discussion(s), a motion to go out of Executive Session was adopted." You might even not include the "At the conclusion..." part.

No secrets given away there.

But the separate minutes that George Mervosh spoke of would have to contain the motion that wss made there, wouldn't it? (And how would they have properly gone out of executive session, anyway? All I can see is that, during debate on a motion, someone raises a question of privilege, and there you go. But wouldn't that be awkward?)
