Wild Dunes Posted November 5, 2021 at 06:09 PM Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 at 06:09 PM Our HOA board holds regular monthly meetings. On occasion we adjourn the regular meeting to move into an executive session. Is that exec session handled like a regular meeting - do we have an agenda, do we call roll, have flag salute, etc. And, after meeting begins, we have dispensed with parlimentary procedure in order to have an open discussion on a certain subject. Are we okay with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we okay with that? Stop adjourning the regular meeting. It's highly problematic. When the board is ready to go into executive session, just adopt a motion to do so. The board can excuse everyone it doesn't want to have in the executive session and then carry on with your business. Once the business is completed, then adjourn the meeting.

Wild Dunes Posted November 5, 2021 at 07:11 PM Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2021 at 07:11 PM Thank you. I was incorrect when I used "adjourn." We do as you wrote, adopt a motion to move into exec session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
